Optimization by Continuation

  • Chapter

Part of the book series: NATO ASI Series ((ASIC,volume 313))

Abstract

This paper presents two applications of continuation methods to the control of nonlinear systems.In the first one the aim is to control the position of isolas.This can be achieved by a continuation procedure to localize isola centers and bifurcation points. The method also traces out curves of isola centers and perturbed bifurcation points. The technique has been applied to a reaction — diffusion biochemical system, for which numerical results are given, and to periodic solutions.The second application consists in viewing optimal control problems as Cauchy problems which themselves can be solved by continuation techniques. As an example the method is applied in a general framework to exact controllability of systems and in particular for a nonlinear distributed system.
