Infinite Dimensional Optimization and Control Theory
Treats optimal problems for systems described by ODEs and PDEs, using an approach that unifies finite and infinite dimensional nonlinear programming.
Infinite Dimensional Linear Control Systems
For more than forty years, the equation y'(t) = Ay(t) + u(t) in Banach spaces has been used as model for optimal control processes described by partial differential equations, in particular heat and diffusion processes. Many of the outstanding open problems, however, have remained open until recently, and some have never been solved. This book is a survey of all results know to the author, with emphasis on very recent results (1999 to date).The book is restricted to linear equations and two particular problems (the time optimal problem, the norm optimal problem) which results in a more focused and concrete treatment. As experience shows, results on linear equations are the basis for the treatment of their semilinear counterparts, and techniques for the time and norm optimal problems can often be generalized to more general cost functionals.The main object of this book is to be a state-of-the-art monograph on the theory of the time and norm optimal controls for y'(t) = Ay(t) + u(t) that ends at the very latest frontier of research, with open problems and indications for future research.Key features:· Applications to optimal diffusion processes.· Applications to optimal heat propagation processes.· Modelling of optimal processes governed by partial differential equations.· Complete bibliography.· Includes the latest research on the subject.· Does not assume anything from the reader except basic functional analysis.· Accessible to researchers and advanced graduate students alike· Applications to optimal diffusion processes.· Applications to optimal heat propagation processes.· Modelling of optimal processes governed by partial differential equations.· Complete bibliography.· Includes the latest research on the subject.· Does not assume anything from the reader except basic functional analysis.· Accessible to researchers and advanced graduate students alike
Stochastic Optimal Control in Infinite Dimension
Providing an introduction to stochastic optimal control in infinite dimension, this book gives a complete account of the theory of second-order HJB equations in infinite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, focusing on its applicability to associated stochastic optimal control problems. It features a general introduction to optimal stochastic control, including basic results (e.g. the dynamic programming principle) with proofs, and provides examples of applications. A complete and up-to-date exposition of the existing theory of viscosity solutions and regular solutions of second-order HJB equations in Hilbert spaces is given, together with an extensive survey of other methods, with a full bibliography. In particular, Chapter 6, written by M. Fuhrman and G. Tessitore, surveys the theory of regular solutions of HJB equations arising in infinite-dimensional stochastic control, via BSDEs. The book is of interest to both pure and applied researchers working in the control theory of stochastic PDEs, and in PDEs in infinite dimension. Readers from other fields who want to learn the basic theory will also find it useful. The prerequisites are: standard functional analysis, the theory of semigroups of operators and its use in the study of PDEs, some knowledge of the dynamic programming approach to stochastic optimal control problems in finite dimension, and the basics of stochastic analysis and stochastic equations in infinite-dimensional spaces.
