Description

Expand your mathematical research with Calculus of Variations and Optimal Control, part of the Translations of Mathematical Monographs series. This specialized text focuses on the development of the Pontryagin minimum theory as applied to problems within the calculus of variations. A central element of this work is the application of the Pontryagin minimum notion, which serves as a distinctive feature for students and professionals in applied mathematics. The book introduces a new theory regarding quadratic conditions for a Pontryagin minimum, specifically designed to cover broken extremals. Readers will find detailed derivations of sufficient conditions for a strong minimum and see how classical theorems of the calculus of variations are generalized. Published by the American Mathematical Society, this monograph provides the technical depth required for advanced study in optimal control and mathematical theory.
