Description for Introduction to Optimal Control Theory (Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics)
Hardcover. Provides an introduction to optimal control theory for systems governed by vector ordinary differential equations and includes a proof of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle. This book integrates theory and applications with examples, particularly one special example (the rocket car), which relates all the abstract ideas to an understandable setting. Series: Undergraduate Texts in Mathematics. Num Pages: 182 pages, biography. BIC Classification: PB; TJFM. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational; (UP) Postgraduate, Research & Scholarly; (UU) Undergraduate. Dimension: 234 x 156 x 12. Weight in Grams: 444.
This monograph is an introduction to optimal control theory for systems governed by vector ordinary differential equations. It is not intended as a state-of-the-art handbook for researchers. We have tried to keep two types of reader in mind: (1) mathematicians, graduate students, and advanced undergraduates in mathematics who want a concise introduction to a field which contains nontrivial interesting applications of mathematics (for example, weak convergence, convexity, and the theory of ordinary differential equations); (2) economists, applied scientists, and engineers who want to understand some of the mathematical foundations. of optimal control theory. In general, we have emphasized motivation and ... Read more
