چکیده

A new max-plus fundamental solution semigroup is presented for a class of lossless wave equations. This new semigroup is developed by employing the action principle to encapsulate the propagation of all possible solutions of a given wave equation in the evolution of the value function of an associated optimal control problem. The max-plus fundamental solution semigroup for this optimal control problem is then constructed via dynamic programming, and used to formulate the fundamental solution semigroup for the original wave equation. An application of this semigroup to solving twopoint boundary value problems is discussed via an example.

A new fundamental solution for a class of differential Riccati equations

A class of differential Riccati equations (DREs) is considered whereby the evolution of any solution can be identified with the propagation of a value function of a corresponding optimal control problem arising in L2-gain analysis. By exploiting the semigroup properties inherited from the attendant dynamic programming principle, a max-plus primal space fundamental solution semigroup of max-plus...

A max-plus primal space fundamental solution for a class of differential Riccati equations

Recently, a max-plus dual space fundamental solution for a class of difference Riccati equations (DREs) has been developed. This fundamental solution is represented in terms of the kernel of a specific max-plus linear operator that plays the role of the dynamic programming evolution operator in a max-plus dual space. In order to fully understand connections between this dual space fundamental s...

Convergence Rate for a Curse-of-dimensionality-free Method for Hjb Pdes Represented as Maxima of Quadratic Forms

In previous work of the author and others, max-plus methods have been explored for solution of first-order, nonlinear Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman partial differential equations (HJB PDEs) and corresponding nonlinear control problems. Although max-plus basis expansion and max-plus finite-element methods provide computational-speed advantages, they still generally suffer from the curse-of-dimensional...

A new fundamental solution for differential Riccati equations arising in control

The matrix differential Riccati equation (DRE) is ubiquitous in control and systems theory. The presence of the quadratic term implies that a simple linear-systems fundamental solution does not exist. Of course it is well-known that the Bernoulli substitution may be applied to obtain a linear system of doubled size. Here however, tools from max-plus analysis and semiconvex duality are brought t...
