High-Order Extended Maximum Principles for Optimal Control Problems with Non-Regular Constraints

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: Applied Optimization ((APOP,volume 15))

Abstract

In this paper we present high-order generalizations of the Maximum Principle for an optimal control problem with terminal data when the linearization around the reference trajectory is not completely controllable. They apply to both singular and abnormal cases and give nontrivial conditions in these cases. The proofs rely on high-order approximations. Specifically, a high-order generalization of the Lyusternik theorem is used to describe high-order tangent directions for non-regular equality constraints.
