Optimal control theory seeks to determine control strategies that drive dynamical systems to meet performance objectives, while mixed-integer optimisation incorporates both continuous and discrete ...

A model of optimal diet selection on depletable resources is presented which considers the effects of exploitative competitors on the optimal behavior. In the absence of any competitors, one of three ...

Merton, Robert C. "Analytical Optimal Control Theory as Applied to Stochastic and Non-Stochastic Economics." Diss., Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), 1970.

We study Monge's optimal transportation problem, where the cost is given by an optimal control cost. We prove the existence and uniqueness of an optimal map under certain regularity conditions on the ...
