Two Characterizations of Optimality in Dynamic Programming
نویسندگان
چکیده
It holds in great generality that a plan is optimal for a dynamic programming problem, if and only if it is “thrifty” and “equalizing.” An alternative characterization of an optimal plan, that applies in many economic models, is that the plan must satisfy an appropriate Euler equation and a transversality condition. Here we explore the connections between these two characterizations.

Planning and Control of Two-Link Rigid Flexible Manipulators in Dynamic Object Manipulation Missions
This research focuses on proposing an optimal trajectory planning and control method of two link rigid-flexible manipulators (TLRFM) for Dynamic Object Manipulation (DOM) missions. For the first time, achievement of DOM task using a rotating one flexible link robot was taken into account in [20]. The authors do not aim to contribute on either trajectory tracking or vibration control of the End-...
متن کاملSufficient global optimality conditions for general mixed integer nonlinear programming problems
In this paper, some KKT type sufficient global optimality conditions for general mixed integer nonlinear programming problems with equality and inequality constraints (MINPP) are established. We achieve this by employing a Lagrange function for MINPP. In addition, verifiable sufficient global optimality conditions for general mixed integer quadratic programming problems are der...

متن کاملA goal geometric programming problem (G2P2) with logarithmic deviational variables and its applications on two industrial problems
A very useful multi-objective technique is goal programming. There are many methodologies of goal programming such as weighted goal programming, min-max goal programming, and lexicographic goal programming. In this paper, weighted goal programming is reformulated as goal programming with logarithmic deviation variables. Here, a comparison of the proposed method and goal programming with weighte...
متن کاملOn Sequential Optimality Conditions without Constraint Qualifications for Nonlinear Programming with Nonsmooth Convex Objective Functions
Sequential optimality conditions provide adequate theoretical tools to justify stopping criteria for nonlinear programming solvers. Here, nonsmooth approximate gradient projection and complementary approximate Karush-Kuhn-Tucker conditions are presented. These sequential optimality conditions are satisfied by local minimizers of optimization problems independently of the fulfillment of constrai...
