Abstract
The problem is that of finding trajectories of a linear evolution equation connecting two prescribed sets of states, initial and terminal, in the shortest possible time. Necessary conditions for the existence of solutions, i.e., time-optimum trajectories, are given in the form of a maximum principle.
