Abstract
We consider a control problem where the state must approach asymptotically a target C while paying an integral cost with a non-negative Lagrangian l. The dynamics f is just continuous, and no assumptions are made on the zero level set of the Lagrangian l. Through an inequality involving a positive number View the MathML sourcep¯0 and a Minimum Restraint FunctionU=U(x)U=U(x) – a special type of Control Lyapunov Function – we provide a condition implying that (i) the system is asymptotically controllable, and (ii) the value function is bounded by View the MathML sourceU/p¯0. The result has significant consequences for the uniqueness issue of the corresponding Hamilton–Jacobi equation. Furthermore it may be regarded as a first step in the direction of a feedback construction.
