Abstract
This paper first studies the extendability after quenching for some ordinary differential equations. With respect to a solution, which quenches at finite time, we give a criterion of its non-extendability after quenching; it implies a necessary condition of extendability after quenching for this solution. Then, we consider an optimal control problem after quenching. We establish the Pontryagin’s maximum principle to this problem.
