Discrete variational integrators and optimal control theory
A geometric derivation of numerical integrators for optimal control problems is proposed. It is based in the classical technique of generating functions adapted to the special features of optimal control problems.
متن کاملScattering theory and discrete-time quantum walks
We study quantum walks on general graphs from the point of view of scattering theory. For a general finite graph we choose two vertices and attach one half line to each, and consider walks that proceed from one half line, through the graph, to the other. The probability of starting on one line and reaching the other after n steps can be expressed in terms of the transmission amplitude for the g...
متن کاملDiscrete Variational Optimal Control
This paper develops numerical methods for optimal control of mechanical systems in the Lagrangian setting. It extends the theory of discrete mechanics to enable the solutions of optimal control problems through the discretization of variational principles. The key point is to solve the optimal control problem as a variational integrator of a specially constructed higher-dimensional system. The ...
متن کاملA novel discrete variable representation for quantum mechanical reactive scattering via the S-matrix Kohn method
A novel discrete variable representation (DVR) is introduced for use as the L 2 basis of the Smatrix version of the Kohn variational method [ Zhang, Chu, and Miller, J. Chem. Phys. 88, 6233 ( 1988) ] for quantum reactive scattering. (It can also be readily used for quantum eigenvalue problems.) The primary novel feature is that this DVR gives an extremely simple kinetic energy matrix (the poten...
متن کاملElastic scattering theory for electronic waves in quantum corrals.
Recent scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies on the (111) faces of noble metals have directly imaged electronic surface-connned states, and dramatic standing-wave patterns have been observed in geometrically arranged \quantum corral" structures formed by Fe adatoms on Cu(111). We present a coherent elastic scattering theory for the electronic states in these \leaky" connning structures by...
