governors.dvi ON GOVERNORS J.C. MAXWELL From the Proceedings of the Royal Society, No.100, 1868. A GOVERNOR is a part of a machine by means of which the velocity of the machine is kept nearly uniform, notwithstanding variations in the driving-power or the resistance. Most governors depend on the centrifugal force of a piece connected with a shaft of the machine. When the velocity increases, this f

1 Lecture 1: Introduction (Karl Johan) 2 Lecture 2: Calculus of variation (CoV) and the Maximum principle In this lecture, we are going to learn the maximum principle. The MP is a type of CoV, so we will first study the classical theory of CoV. Then we will try to move from the classical CoV theory to the optimal control setting, there we will immediately encounter some essential difficulties that

4 Lecture 4. Misc topics on MP and the proof of the MP In the previous lecture, we studied the maximum principle. The main result is the following theorem. Theorem 1. Consider the system ẋ = f(x, u) with cost function J(u) = φ(x(tf )) + ∫ tf 0 L(x, u)dt and boundary constraint x(tf ) ∈ M ⊆ Rn Assume f , φ and L are C1 in x. Let (x∗(·), u∗(·)) correspond to the optimal solution to the minimiza- ti

Exercise for Optimal control – Week 1 Choose two problems to solve. Exercise 1 (Fundamental lemma of CoV). Let f be a real valued function defined on open interval (a, b) and f satisfies ∫ b a f(x)h(x)dx = 0 for all h ∈ Cc(a, b), i.e., h is continuous on (a, b) and its support, i.e., the closure of {x : h(x) ̸= 0} is contained in (a, b). 1) Show that f is identically zero if f is continuous. If f

6 Lecture 6. Final step of the proof of MP and a start of DP 6.1 The proof of the maximum principle (finally!) In our previous lecture, we started proving the maximum principle for the Mayer problem ẋ = f(x, u) with cost J = φ(x(tf )) under the constraint u(t) ∈ U , x(tf ) ∈ M . The basic tool for the proof is the method of tent. To that end, we defined the following tents: Ω0 = {x1} ∪ {x : φ(x)
