Bilevel Optimal Control With Final-State-Dependent Finite-Dimensional Lower Level

In this paper we discuss special bilevel optimal control problems where the upper level problem is an optimal control problem of ODEs with control and terminal constraints and the lower level problem is a finite-dimensional parametric optimization problem where the parameter is the final state of the state variable of the upper level. We tackle this problem using tools of nonsmooth analysis, optimization in Banach spaces and bilevel programming to derive a necessary optimality condition of linearized Pontryagin-type.
