TL;DRAbstract

In this chapter we present a first account of optimal control theory. The maximum principle is the central result of the theory. (It was originally developed by Pontryagin and his associates; see Pontryagin et al., 1962.) To help the reader become thoroughly acquainted with it, we proceed with the analysis of a simple case, without paying undue attention to some technical regularity conditions. (These and other matters will be dealt with in Chapter 6.)
