A rigorous introduction to optimal control theory, with an emphasis on applications in economics. This book bridges optimal control theory and economics, discus
Optimal control methods are used to determine optimal ways to control a dynamic system. The theoretical work in this field serves as a foundation for the book,
Systems that evolve with time occur frequently in nature and modelling the behavior of such systems provides an important application of mathematics. These syst
This book is an introduction to the mathematical theory of optimal control of processes governed by ordinary differential eq- tions. It is intended for students
