Abstract

The book focuses on the symplectic pseudospectral methods to solve nonlinear optimal control problems. And this section provides necessary mathematical foundations to understand how we construct symplectic pseudospectral methods, including (i) basic concepts of optimal control problems, (ii) mathematical foundations of symplectic methods, and (iii) implementations of pseudospectral methods.
