Abstract

In this work we present a numerical procedure for the ergodic optimal minimax control problem. Restricting the development to the case with relaxed controls and using a perturbation of the instantaneous cost function, we obtain discrete solutions U k ε that converge to the optimal relaxed cost U when the relation ship between the parameters of discretization k and penalization ε is an appropriate one.
