By an estimate of the integral of x_{1}(t)x_{1}(t-\\delta) term, we obtain a general maximum principle for the optimal control problems with a standard spike variational technique and duality method. The maximum principle is applied to study a delayed linear-quadratic optimal control problem with a non-convex control domain; an optimal solution is obtained.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2020-10-18T02:42:42.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "general maximum principle", "stochastic systems", "delayed linear-quadratic optimal control problem", "standard spike variational technique", "control domain" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
