Sub-Finslerian Metric Associated to an Optimal Control System

چکیده
The problem of minimizing the cost functional of an Optimal Control System through the use of constrained Variational Calculus is a generalization of the geodetic problem in Riemannian geometry. In the framework of a geometric formulation of Optimal Control, we define a metric structure associated to the Optimal Control System on the enlarged space of state and time variables, such that the minimal length curves of the metric are the optimal solutions of the system. A twofold generalization of metric structure is applied, considering Finslerian type metrics as well as allowed and forbidden directions (like in sub-Riemannian geometry). Free (null Hamiltonian) or fixed final parameter problems are identified with constant energy leaves, and the restriction of the metric to these leaves gives way to a family of metric structures on the usual state manifold.

Optimal control, geometry, and quantum computing
We prove upper and lower bounds relating the quantum gate complexity of a unitary operation, U, to the optimal control cost associated to the synthesis of U. These bounds apply for any optimal control problem, and can be used to show that the quantum gate complexity is essentially equivalent to the optimal control cost for a wide range of problems, including time-optimal control and finding min...
متن کاملGeometric Modeling of Dubins Airplane Movement and its Metric
The time-optimal trajectory for an airplane from some starting point to some final point is studied by many authors. Here, we consider the extension of robot planer motion of Dubins model in three dimensional spaces. In this model, the system has independent bounded control over both the altitude velocity and the turning rate of airplane movement in a non-obstacle space. Here, in this paper a g...
متن کاملOn quasi-Einstein Finsler spaces
The notion of quasi-Einstein metric in physics is equivalent to the notion of Ricci soliton in Riemannian spaces. Quasi-Einstein metrics serve also as solution to the Ricci flow equation. Here, the Riemannian metric is replaced by a Hessian matrix derived from a Finsler structure and a quasi-Einstein Finsler metric is defined. In compact case, it is proved that the quasi-Einstein met...
متن کاملOn Finslerian Hypersurfaces Given by β-Changes
In 1984 C.Shibata has dealt with a change of Finsler metric which is called a β-change of metric [12]. For a β-change of Finsler metric, the differential oneform β play very important roles. In 1985 M.Matsumoto studied the theory of Finslerian hypersurfaces [6]. In there various types of Finslerian hypersurfaces are treated and they are called a hyperplane of the 1st kind, a hyperplane of the 2...
