This pap er deals with optimal con trol problems for systems affine in t h e control vari able. W e consider nonn egativit y constrain ts on th e control, and finitely many equality and inequality constraints on the final state. First, w e obtain second order necessary optimality conditions. Secondly , w e d eriv e a second order sufficient condition for the scalar control case. 1. I n troduction In this article w e obtain second ord er conditions for an op timal cont rol problem affine in th e control. First w e consider a p oint wise nonnegativ- it y constrain t on the con trol, end-p oint state constraints and a fixed time in terv al. Then w e extend the result to b ound constr aints on the con trol, initial-final state constraint s an d p roblems inv olving parameters. W e do n ot assume th at the multipliers are unique. W e study wea k and P on try agin minima. There is already an imp ortan t literature on this sub ject. The case with- out con trol constraint s, i.e. when the extremal is total ly singu lar, has b een extensiv ely s tudied since the m id 1960s.

DMITRUK AND P .A. LOTITO con trol case and presente d a necessary cond ition in v olving the second ord er deriv ativ e of the switc h ing fu nction. The r esult was extended b y Kopp and Mo y er [34] for higher order deriv ative s, and in [33] it was shown that th e order had to b e ev en. Goh in [27] prop osed a sp ecial c hange of v ariables obtained via a linear ODE and in [26] used this transf orm ation to deriv e a necessary condition for the v ector con trol pr ob lem. An extensiv e surv ey of these articles can b e foun d in Gabaso v and K irillo v a [24]. Jacobson and Sp eye r in [30], and to gether with L ele in [31] obtained necessary conditions b y adding a p enalizatio n term to the cost f unctional. Gabaso v and Kir illo v a [24], Krener [35], Agrac hev and Gamkrelidze [1] obtained a countable series of necessary conditions th at in fact use the idea b ehind the Goh transforma- tion. Milyutin in [43] d isco vered an ab s tract essence of this app roac h and obtained even stron ger necessary conditions. In [2] Agrac hev and Sac hk o v in v estigate d second order optimalit y cond itions of the minim um time prob- lem of a single-input sy s tem. The main feature of this kind of problem, where th e con trol en ters linearly , is that the corresp onding second v ariation do es not con tain the Legendre term, so the metho d s of th e classica l calculus of v ariations are not applicable for obtaining sufficien t conditions. This is wh y the literature wa s mostly dev oted to necessary conditions, wh ich are actually a consequence of the non n egativit y of the second v ariation. A su f- ficien t condition for time optimalit y was giv en by Mo y er [45] for a system with a scalar con trol v ariable and fixed endp oin ts. O n the other h and, Goh’s transformation ab o v e-men tioned allo ws one to co nv ert the seco nd v ariation in to another functional that h op efully turns out to b e co erciv e w ith resp ect to the L 2 − norm of some state v ariable. Dmitruk in [12] prov ed that this co ercivit y is a suffi cien t co ndition for the wea k optimalit y , and pr esen ted a closely related necessary condition. He used the abstract approac h devel - op ed by Levitin, Milyutin and Osmolo vskii in [38], and considered fin itely man y inequalit y and equalit y constraints on the endp oin ts and the p ossible existence of sev eral multipliers. In [13, 15] he also obtained n ecessary and sufficien t conditions for this norm, again closely related, f or P on try agin min- imalit y . More recentl y , Bonnard et al. in [6] provided second ord er su fficien t conditions for the min im um time problem of a s ingle-input system in terms of the existence of a conjugate time. On the other hand, th e case with linear con trol constraints an d a “purely” bang-bang con trol without singular subarcs has b een extensiv ely inv esti- gated ov er the past 15 ye ars. Milyutin and Osmolo vskii in [44] p ro vided necessary and s ufficien t co nditions based on the general theory of [38]. Os- molo vskii in [46] completed some of the pro ofs of th e latter article. S aryc hev in [53] ga v e firs t and second ord er sufficient condition for Pon try agin solu- tions. A grac hev, Stefani, Zezza [3] redu ced the pr oblem to a finite d imen- sional problem w ith the switc hing instant s as v ariables and obtained a suf - ficien t condition for strong optimal it y . The r esu lt wa s recen tly extended by P oggio lini and Spadin i in [47]. O n the other hand, Maurer and Osmolo v s kii QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 3 in [42, 41] ga ve a second order su fficien t condition that is suitable for prac- tical v erifications and present ed a numerical p ro cedure that allo ws to v erify the p ositivit y of certain quadratic forms. F elgenhauer in [21, 22, 23] stud- ied b oth second order op timalit y conditions and sensitivit y of the optimal solution. The mixed case, wh ere the con trol is partly b ang-bang, partly singular w as stud ied in [48] b y Po ggiolini and S tefani. T hey obtained a s econd order sufficien t condition with an add itional geometrical h yp othesis (which is not needed here) and claimed th at it is not clear whether this h yp othesis is ‘almost necessary’, in the sen se that it is not obtained straigh tforw ard from a necessary condition by strengthening an inequ ality . In [49, 50] they derive d a sec ond order su fficien t condition for the sp ecial case of a time-optimal problem. The main result of the present article is to provide a sufficient condition that is ‘almost necessary’ for bang-singular extremals in a general Ma y er problem. On the other hand, the single-input time-optimal problem w as extensiv ely studied by means of synt hesis-lik e metho ds. See, among others, S ussmann [59, 58, 57], S c h¨ attler [54] and S c h¨ attler-Jank o vic [55]. Both bang-bang and bang-singular s tr uctures were analysed in these w orks. The article is organized as follo ws. In the second section we present the p roblem and give basic definitions. In the third section w e p erform a second order analysis. More p recisely , we obtain the second v ariation of the Lagrangian fun ctions and a necessary condition. Afterw ards, in the four th section, w e present the Goh transformation and a n ew necessary condition in the transformed v ariables. In th e fifth section we sho w a s ufficien t condition for scalar con trol. Finally , w e giv e an example w ith a scalar con trol wh er e the second ord er sufficient condition can b e verified. The app endix is dev oted to a series of tec hnical prop erties that are used to p ro v e the main results. 2. St a tem e nt of t h e p roblem and assump t ions 2.1. Stat emen t of the problem.

When needed, put w = ( x, u ) for a p oint in W := X × U . In this pap er we in v estigat e the optimal control problem J := ϕ 0 ( x ( T )) → min , (1) ˙ x ( t ) = m X i =0 u i f i ( x ) , x (0) = x 0 , (2) u ( t ) ≥ 0 , a . e . on t ∈ [0 , T ] , (3) ϕ i ( x ( T )) ≤ 0 , for i = 1 , . . . , d ϕ , η j ( x ( T )) = 0 , for j = 1 . . . , d η .

ARONNA, J.F. BON NANS, A.V. DMITRUK AND P .A. LOTITO are twice cont inuously differen tiable. F u nctions ϕ i and η j are assumed to b e t wice differen tiable. A tr aje ctory is an elemen t w ∈ W that satisfies the state equation (2). If, in addition, constraint s (3) and (4 ) hold, we say that w is a fe asible p oint of the p r oblem (1)-(4). Denote by A the set of fe asible p oints. A fe asible variation for ˆ w ∈ A is an elemen t δw ∈ W suc h that ˆ w + δ w ∈ A . Definition 2.1. A p air w 0 = ( x 0 , u 0 ) ∈ W is said to b e a we ak minimum of problem (1)-(4) if there exists an ε > 0 suc h that the cost function attains at w 0 its minim um on the set w = ( x, u ) ∈ A : k x − x 0 k ∞ < ε, k u − u 0 k ∞ < ε . W e sa y w 0 is a Pontryagin minimum of problem (1)-(4) if, for an y p ositiv e N , there exists an ε N > 0 suc h that w 0 is a minim um p oin t on the set w = ( x, u ) ∈ A : k x − x 0 k ∞ < ε N , k u − u 0 k ∞ ≤ N , k u − u 0 k 1 < ε N . Consider λ = ( α, β , ψ ) ∈ I R d ϕ +1 , ∗ × I R d η , ∗ × W 1 ∞ (0 , T ; I R n, ∗ ) , i.e. ψ is a Lips c hitz-co nt in uous function w ith v alues in the n − dimensional space of ro w-v ectors with real comp onent s I R n, ∗ . Define th e pr e-H amiltonian function H [ λ ]( x, u, t ) := ψ ( t ) m X i =0 u i f i ( x ) , the terminal L agr angian fu nction ℓ [ λ ]( q ) := d ϕ X i =0 α i ϕ i ( q ) + d η X j = 1 β j η j ( q ) , and the L agr angian function (5) Φ[ λ ]( w ) := ℓ [ λ ]( x ( T )) + Z T 0 ψ ( t ) m X i =0 u i ( t ) f i ( x ( t )) − ˙ x ( t ) ! d t. In this a rticle the optimali t y of a g iv en feasible tra jectory ˆ w = ( ˆ x, ˆ u ) is stu died. Whenev er some argument of f i , H , ℓ, Φ or their deriv ativ es is omitted, assume that they are ev aluated o v er this tra jectory . Without loss of generalit y sup p ose that (6) ϕ i ( ˆ x ( T )) = 0 , for all i = 0 , 1 , . . . , d ϕ . 2.2. First order analysis. Definition 2.2. Denote by Λ ⊂ I R d ϕ +1 , ∗ × I R d η , ∗ × W 1 ∞ (0 , T ; I R n, ∗ ) the set of Pontryagin multipliers asso ciated with ˆ w consisting of the elements λ = ( α, β , ψ ) satisfying the Pontryagin Maximum Principle, i.e. ha ving the follo w ing prop erties: | α | + | β | = 1 , (7) α = ( α 0 , α 1 , . . . , α d ϕ ) ≥ 0 , (8) QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 5 function ψ is solution of th e c ostate e quation and satisfies the tr ansversality c ondition at the end p oin t T , i.e. (9) − ˙ ψ ( t ) = H x [ λ ]( ˆ x ( t ) , ˆ u ( t ) , t ) , ψ ( T ) = ℓ ′ [ λ ]( ˆ x ( T )) , and the follo w ing minimum c ondition holds (10) H [ λ ]( ˆ x ( t ) , ˆ u ( t ) , t ) = min v ≥ 0 H [ λ ]( ˆ x ( t ) , v , t ) , a . e . on [0 , T ] . Remark 1. F or ev ery λ ∈ Λ , the follo wing t wo co nditions hold. (i) H u i [ λ ]( t ) is con tin uous in time, (ii) H u i [ λ ]( t ) ≥ 0 , a.e . on [0 , T ] . Recall th e follo wing w ell known r esult for whic h a pro of can b e found e.g. in Alekseev and T ikhomiro v [4], Kurcyusz and Zo w e [36]. Theorem 2.3. The set Λ is not empty. Remark 2. Since ψ ma y b e expressed as a linear con tin uous mapping of ( α, β ) and since (7) holds, Λ is a fin ite-dimensional compact set. Thus, it can b e identified with a compact subset of I R s , wh ere s := d ϕ + d η + 1 . The follo wing expression for the d eriv ativ e of the Lagrangian function holds (11) Φ u [ λ ]( ˆ w ) v = Z T 0 H u [ λ ]( ˆ x ( t ) , ˆ u ( t ) , t ) v ( t )d t. Consider v ∈ U and the line arize d state e quation: (12) ˙ z ( t ) = m X i =0 ˆ u i ( t ) f ′ i ( ˆ x ( t )) z ( t ) + m X i =1 v i ( t ) f i ( ˆ u ( t )) , a . e . on [0 , T ] , z (0) = 0 . Its solution z is called the line arize d state variable. With ea c h index i = 1 , . . . , m, w e asso ciate the s ets (13) I i 0 := t ∈ [0 , T ] : max λ ∈ Λ H u i [ λ ]( t ) > 0 , I i + := [0 , T ] \ I i 0 , and the active set (14) ˜ I i 0 := { t ∈ [0 , T ] : ˆ u i ( t ) = 0 } . Notice that I i 0 ⊂ ˜ I i 0 , and that I i 0 is relativ ely op en in [0 , T ] as eac h H u i [ λ ] is con tin uous. Assumption 1. Assu me strict c omplementarity for the c ontr ol c onstr aint, i.e. for ev ery i = 1 , . . . , m, (15) I i 0 = ˜ I i 0 , up to a set of n ull measure . Observe then that for an y ind ex i = 1 , . . . , m, th e con trol ˆ u i ( t ) > 0 a.e. on I i + , and giv en λ ∈ Λ , H u i [ λ ]( t ) = 0 , a . e . on I i + . 6 M.S. ARONNA, J.F. BON NANS, A.V. DMITRUK AND P .A. LOTITO Assumption 2. F or ev ery i = 1 , . . . , m, the activ e set I i 0 is a fin ite union of interv als, i.e. I i 0 = N i [ j = 1 I i j , for I i j subinterv als of [0 , T ] of the form [0 , d ) , ( c, T ]; or ( c, d ) if c 6 = 0 and d 6 = T . Denote by c i 1 < d i 1 < c i 2 < . . . < c i N i < d i N i the end p oin ts of these in terv als. C onsequen tly , I i + is a finite u nion of in terv als as w ell. Remark 3 (On the multi-dimensional con trol case) . W e w ould lik e to mak e a comment concerning solutions with more than one con trol comp onent b e- ing singular at the same time. In [9, 10], Chitour et al. prov ed that generic systems with three or m ore co nt rol v ariables, or with t wo con trols and drift did not adm it singular optimal tra jectories (b y means of Goh’s necessary condition [26]). Consequent ly , the study of generic prop erties of con tr ol- affine systems is r estricted to problems ha ving either one dimensional control or t w o con trol v ariables and no drift. Neverthele ss, there are motiv ations for in v estigati ng problems with an arbitrary num b er of inputs that w e p oin t out next. In [37], L ed zewicz and S c h¨ attler work ed on a mo del of cancer treat- men t havi ng tw o control v ariables entering linearly in the pr e-Hamilto nian and n onzero d rift. T hey p ro vided necessary optimalit y cond itions for so- lutions with b oth con trols b eing singular at the same time. Eve n if they w ere not able to giv e a pro of of optimalit y they claimed to ha ve strong ex- p ectations that this str ucture is part of the solution. Other examples can b e found in the literature. Maurer in [40] analyzed a resour ce allo cation problem (tak en from Bryson-Ho [8]). Th e mo del h ad t w o controls and drift, and numerical computations yielded a candid ate solution con taining t w o si- m ultaneous singular arcs. F or a system with a similar structure, Ga jardo et al. in [25] discussed the optimalit y of an extremal with t w o singular con trol comp onen ts at the same time. Another motiv ation th at we wo uld lik e to p oint out is the tec hnique used in Ar onna et al. [5] to study the sho oting algorithm for bang-singular solutions. In order to treat this kin d of extremals, they p erform a transform ation that yields a new system and an asso ciated totally singular solution. This n ew s y s tem in v olv es as many con trol v ariables as singular arcs of the original solution. Hence, ev en a one-dimensional problem can lead to a m ulti-dimensional totally singular solution. Th ese facts giv e a motiv ation for th e in v estigation of m ulti-input con trol-affine problems. 2.3. Crit ical cones. Let 1 ≤ p ≤ ∞ , and call U p := L p (0 , T ; I R m ) , U + p := L p (0 , T ; I R m + ) and X p := W 1 p (0 , T ; I R n ) . Recal l that giv en a top ological v ector space E , a su b set D ⊂ E and x ∈ E , a tangent dir e ction to D at x is an elemen t d ∈ E suc h that there exists sequences ( σ k ) ⊂ I R + and ( x k ) ⊂ D with x k − x σ k → d. QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 7 It is a well kn o wn result, see e.g. [11], that the tangen t cone to U + 2 at ˆ u is { v ∈ U 2 : v i ≥ 0 on I i 0 , for i = 1 , . . . , m } . Giv en v ∈ U p and z the solution of (12), consider the line arization of the c ost and final c onstr aints (16) ( ϕ ′ i ( ˆ x ( T )) z ( T ) ≤ 0 , i = 0 , . . . , d ϕ , η ′ j ( ˆ x ( T )) z ( T ) = 0 , j = 1 , . . . , d η . F or p ∈ { 2 , ∞} , define the L p − critic al c one as C p := ( z , v ) ∈ X p × U p : v tangen t to U + p , (12) and (16) hold . Certain relations of inclusion and d ensit y b et w een some app ro ximate critical cones are n eeded. Given ε ≥ 0 and i = 1 , . . . , m, d efine the ε − active sets, up to a s et of null m easure I i ε := { t ∈ (0 , T ) : ˆ u i ( t ) ≤ ε } , and the sets W p,ε := { ( z , v ) ∈ X p × U p : v i = 0 on I i ε , (12) h olds } . By Assum ption 1, the follo wing explicit expression for C 2 holds (17) C 2 = { ( z , v ) ∈ W 2 , 0 : (16) holds } . Consider the ε − critic al c ones (18) C p,ε := { ( z , v ) ∈ W p,ε : (16 ) holds } . Let ε > 0 . Note that by (17), C 2 ,ε ⊂ C 2 . O n the other hand, giv en ( z , v ) ∈ C ∞ ,ε , it easily follo ws that ˆ u + σ v ∈ U + for sm all p ositiv e σ. Th us v is tangen t to U + at ˆ u, and this y ields C ∞ ,ε ⊂ C ∞ . Recall the follo wing tec h nical result, see Dmitruk [16]. Lemma 2.4 (on d ensit y) . Consider a lo c al ly c onvex top olo gic al sp ac e X , a finite-fac e d c one C ⊂ X , and a line ar manifold L dense in X . Then the c one C ∩ L is dense in C. Lemma 2.5.

As U is dense in U 2 , W ∞ ,ε is a dense subspace of W 2 ,ε . By Lemma 2.4, C 2 ,ε ∩ W ∞ ,ε is dense in C 2 ,ε , as desired. (b) The inclusion is immediate. In order to pro v e density , consider the follo w ing dense subs pace of W 2 , 0 : W 2 , S := [ ε> 0 W 2 ,ε , and the fin ite-face d cone in C 2 ⊂ W 2 , 0 . By Lemma 2.4, C 2 ∩ W 2 , S is d ense in C 2 , whic h is what we needed to prov e. 8 M.S. ARONNA, J.F. BON NANS, A.V. DMITRUK AND P .A. LOTITO 3. S econd order anal ys is 3.1. Second v ariation.

The next lemma pr o vides a second order expansion for the Lagrangian func- tion in v olving op erator Ω . Recall the follo wing notation: giv en t w o functions h : I R n → I R n h and k : I R n → I R n k , we say that h is a big-O of k around 0 and denote it by h ( x ) = O ( k ( x )) , if there exists p ositiv e constan ts δ and M suc h that | h ( x ) | ≤ M | k ( x ) | for | x | < δ. I t is a smal l-o if M go es to 0 as | x | go es to 0. D enote this by h ( x ) = o ( k ( x )) . Lemma 3.1. L et δ w = ( δ x, δ u ) ∈ W . Then for every multiplier λ ∈ Λ , the function Φ has the fol lowing exp ansion (omitting time ar g uments): Φ[ λ ]( ˆ w + δ w ) = Z T 0 H u [ λ ] δ u d t + Ω[ λ ]( δ x, δ u ) + 1 2 Z T 0 ( H uxx [ λ ] δ x, δ x, δ u )d t + O ( | δ x ( T ) | 3 ) + Z T 0 | ( ˆ u + δ u )( t ) |O ( | δ x ( t ) | 3 ) d t.

Th us th e pair ( r , δ ζ ) is feasible for (QP v ). Let u s n ow pr o v e that v al (QP v ) ≥ 0 . On the contrary supp ose that there exists a f easible solution ( r, δζ ) with δ ζ < 0 . The last constraint in (QP v ) implies k r k ∞ 6 = 0 . Set, for σ > 0 , (22) ˜ u ( σ ) := ˆ u + σ v + 1 2 σ 2 r , ˜ ζ ( σ ) := 1 2 σ 2 δ ζ . The goal is fi nding u ( σ ) feasible for (P) suc h that for sm all σ, u ( σ ) U → ˆ u, and ¯ ϕ 0 ( u ( σ )) < ¯ ϕ 0 ( ˆ u ) , con tradicting the w eak optimalit y of ˆ u. Notice that ˆ u i ( t ) > ε a.e. on [0 , T ] \ I i ε , and then ˜ u ( σ ) i ( t ) > − ˜ ζ ( σ ) for sufficien tly small σ. On I i ε , if ˜ u ( σ ) i ( t ) < − ˜ ζ ( σ ) then necessarily ˆ u i ( t ) < 1 2 σ 2 ( k r k ∞ + | δ ζ | ) , as v i ( t ) = 0 . Thus, defining th e set J i σ := { t : 0 < ˆ u i ( t ) < 1 2 σ 2 ( k r k ∞ + | δ ζ | ) } , w e get { t ∈ [0 , T ] : ˜ u ( σ ) i ( t ) < − ˜ ζ ( σ ) } ⊂ J i σ . Ob serv e that on J i σ , the fun ction | ˜ u ( σ ) i ( t ) + ˜ ζ ( σ ) | /σ 2 is d omin ated by k r k ∞ + | δ ζ | .

Th us, ˜ ˜ u satisfies (23) ˜ ˜ u ( σ )( t ) ≥ − ˜ ζ ( σ ) , a . e . on [0 , T ] , k ˜ ˜ u ( σ ) − ˆ u k 1 = o ( σ 2 ) , k ˜ ˜ u ( σ ) − ˆ u k ∞ = O ( σ 2 ) , and the follo w ing estimates h old ¯ ϕ i ( ˜ ˜ u ( σ )) = ¯ ϕ i ( ˆ u ) + σ ¯ ϕ ′ i ( ˆ u ) v + 1 2 σ 2 [ ¯ ϕ ′ i ( ˆ u ) r + ¯ ϕ ′′ i ( ˆ u )( v , v )] + o ( σ 2 ) < ¯ ϕ i ( ˆ u ) + ˜ ζ ( σ ) + o ( σ 2 ) , (24) ¯ η ( ˜ ˜ u ( σ )) = σ ¯ η ′ ( ˆ u ) v + 1 2 σ 2 [ ¯ η ′ ( ˆ u ) r + ¯ η ′′ ( ˆ u )( v , v )] + o ( σ 2 ) = o ( σ 2 ) . As ¯ η ′ ( ˆ u ) is ont o on U w e can find a corrected con trol u ( σ ) satisfying the equalit y constrain t and suc h that k u ( σ ) − ˜ ˜ u ( σ ) k ∞ = o ( σ 2 ) . De duce by (23) that u ( σ ) ≥ 0 a.e. on [0 , T ] , and b y (24) that it satisfies the terminal QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 11 inequalit y constraint s. Thus u ( σ ) is feasible for (P) and it satisfies (22). This cont radicts the w eak optimalit y of ˆ u. Recall that a L agr ange multip lier asso ciated w ith ˆ w is a pair ( λ, µ ) in I R d ϕ +1 × I R d η × W 1 ∞ (0 , T ; I R n, ∗ ) × U ∗ with λ = ( α, β , ψ ) satisfying (7), (8), µ ≥ 0 and the stationarity c ond ition Z T 0 H u [ λ ]( t ) v ( t )d t + Z T 0 v ( t )d µ ( t ) = 0 , for every v ∈ U . Here U ∗ denotes the dual space of U . Simple computations sho w that ( λ, µ ) is a Lagrange m ultiplier if and only if λ is a Po n try agin multiplie r and µ = H u [ λ ] . T h us µ ∈ L ∞ (0 , T ; I R m, ∗ ) . Let us come bac k to Theorem 3.2. Pr o of. [of Theorem 3.2] Lemma 3.4 co v ers the degenerate case. Assu me th us that ¯ η ′ ( ˆ u ) is onto .

App lyin g Prop osition 1, we see th at there cannot exist r and δζ < 0 suc h that ¯ ϕ ′ i ( ˆ u ) r + ¯ ϕ ′′ i ( ˆ u )( v , v ) ≤ δ ζ , i = 0 , . . . , d ϕ , ¯ η ′ ( ˆ u ) r + ¯ η ′′ ( ˆ u )( v , v ) = 0 , − r i ( t ) ≤ δ ζ , on I i 0 , for i = 1 , . . . , m. By the Dub ovit skii-Milyutin Theorem (see [19]) we obtain the existence of ( α, β ) ∈ I R s and µ ∈ U ∗ with supp µ i ⊂ I i 0 , and ( α, β , µ ) 6 = 0 suc h that (25) d ϕ X i =0 α i ¯ ϕ ′ i ( ˆ u ) + d η X i =1 β j ¯ η ′ j ( ˆ u ) − µ = 0 , and denoting λ := ( α, β , ψ ) , with ψ b eing solution of (9), the follo w in g holds: d ϕ X i =0 α i ¯ ϕ ′′ i ( ˆ u )( v , v ) + d η X i =1 β j ¯ η ′′ j ( ˆ u )( v , v ) ≥ 0 . By Lemma 8.2 we obtain (26) Ω[ λ ]( z , v ) ≥ 0 . Observe that (25) implies that λ ∈ Λ . C onsider now ( ¯ z , ¯ v ) ∈ C 2 , and note that Lemma 2.5 guarantee s the existence of a sequence { ( z ε , v ε ) } ⊂ C ∞ ,ε con v erging to ( ¯ z , ¯ v ) in X 2 × U 2 . Recall Remark 2.

Th us y ∈ Y := W 1 ∞ (0 , T ; I R m ) , y (0) = 0 and ξ is an elemen t of sp ace X . It easily follo ws that ξ is a solution of the linear differen tial equ ation (29) ˙ ξ ( t ) = A ( t ) ξ ( t ) + B 1 ( t ) y ( t ) , ξ (0) = 0 , where (30) B 1 ( t ) := A ( t ) B ( t ) − ˙ B ( t ) .

Then (27) coincides w ith the linearized equatio n (12). 4.1. T ransformed critical directions. As optimalit y conditions on the v ariables obtai ned b y th e Goh T rans f ormation will b e derive d, a n ew set of critical dir ections is needed.

Define the set P 2 := { ( ξ , y , h ) ∈ X 2 × U 2 × I R m : (29 ) , (32) , (33) and (3 4) hold } . Lemma 4.1. P i s a dense subset of P 2 in the X 2 × U 2 × I R m − top olo gy.

By Lemma 8.1 , L is a dense subset of X. Th e conclusion follo ws with Lemma 2.4. 4.2. T ransformed second v ariat ion.

(35) Q [ λ ] := H xx [ λ ] , C [ λ ] := H ux [ λ ] , M [ λ ] := B ⊤ Q [ λ ] − ˙ C [ λ ] − C [ λ ] A, where A and B w ere defined in (31 ). Notice that M is w ell-defined as C is Lipsc hitz-con tin uous on t. Decomp ose matrix C [ λ ] B into its symmetric an d sk ew-symmetric parts, i.e. c onsider (36) S [ λ ] := 1 2 ( C [ λ ] B + ( C [ λ ] B ) ⊤ ) , V [ λ ] := 1 2 ( C [ λ ] B − ( C [ λ ] B ) ⊤ ) . Remark 4. Observ e th at, since C [ λ ] and B are Lip sc hitz-con tinuous, S [ λ ] and V [ λ ] are Lipsc h itz-co nt inuous as w ell. In fact, simple computations yield (37) S ij [ λ ] = 1 2 ψ ( f ′ i f j + f ′ j f i ) , V ij [ λ ] = 1 2 ψ [ f i , f j ] , for i, j = 1 , . . . , m, where (38) [ f i , f j ] := f ′ i f j − f ′ j f i . With this notation, Ω tak es the form Ω[ λ ]( δ x, v ) = 1 2 ℓ ′′ [ λ ]( ˆ x ( T ))( δx ( T )) 2 + 1 2 Z T 0 [( Q [ λ ] δx , δ x ) + 2( C [ λ ] δ x, v )]d t . Define the m × m matrix (39) R [ λ ] := B ⊤ Q [ λ ] B − C [ λ ] B 1 − ( C [ λ ] B 1 ) ⊤ − ˙ S [ λ ] , where B 1 w as in trod u ced in equatio n (30). Consider the function g [ λ ] from I R n × I R m to I R defined by: (40) g [ λ ]( ζ , h ) := 1 2 ℓ ′′ [ λ ]( ˆ x ( T ))( ζ + B ( T ) h ) 2 + 1 2 ( C [ λ ]( T )(2 ζ + B ( T ) h ) , h ) . Remark 5.

The follo wing theorem sho ws that Ω P coincides w ith Ω . See e.g. [15]. Theorem 4.4. L et ( z , v ) ∈ W satisfying (12) and ( ξ , y ) b e define d by (28) . Then Ω[ λ ]( z , v ) = Ω P [ λ ]( ξ , y , v ) . Pr o of. W e omit the dep end ence on λ for the sak e of simplicit y . R ep lace z b y its expression in (28) and obtain Ω( z , v ) = 1 2 ℓ ′′ ( ˆ x ( T ))( ξ ( T ) + B ( T ) y ( T )) 2 + 1 2 Z T 0 [( Q ( ξ + B y ) , ξ + B y ) + ( C ( ξ + B y ) , v ) + ( C ⊤ v , ξ + B y )]d t. (42) In tegrating b y parts yields (43) Z T 0 ( C ξ , v )d t = [( C ξ , y )] T 0 − Z T 0 ( ˙ C ξ + C ( Aξ + B 1 y ) , y )d t, and Z T 0 ( C B y , v )d t = Z T 0 (( S + V ) y , v )d t = 1 2 [( S y , y )] T 0 + Z T 0 ( − 1 2 ( ˙ S y , y ) + ( V y , v ))d t. (44) Com bining (42), (43) and (4 4) w e get the desired result. Corollary 1. If V [ λ ] ≡ 0 then Ω do es not involve v explicitly, and it c an b e expr esse d in terms of ( ξ , y , y ( T )) . In view of (37), th e previous corolla ry holds in particular if [ f i , f j ] = 0 on the referen ce tra jectory for eac h pair 1 ≤ i < j ≤ m. Corollary 2.

QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 21 Next, we pr ov e that (64) R k = o ( γ k ) . Note that Q ( a, a ) − Q ( b, b ) = Q ( a + b, a − b ) , for any bilinear mappin g Q , and any pair a, b. Put η k := δ x k − z k . Hence, from (63), we get ∆ k Ω[ λ ] = 1 2 ℓ ′′ [ λ ]( ˆ x ( T ))( δx k ( T ) + z k ( T ) , η k ( T )) + 1 2 Z T 0 ( H xx [ λ ]( δx k + z k ) , η k )d t + Z T 0 ( H ux [ λ ] η k , v k )d t.

By inequalit y (69) and equation (70), equalit y (64) is obtained and thus, the desired resu lt follo ws. Pr o of. [of Theorem 5.5] P art 1. First w e pro v e that if ˆ w is a normal Po n try a- gin minim um satisfying the γ − quadratic gro wth condition in the P on try agin sense then (6 0) h olds for some ρ > 0 . Here the necessary condition of The- orem 3.2 is used. D efine ˆ y ( t ) := R t 0 ˆ u ( s )d s, and note that ( ˆ w , ˆ y ) is, for some ρ ′ > 0 , a P ontry agi n minimum of ˜ J := J − ρ ′ γ ( y − ˆ y , y ( T ) − ˆ y ( T )) → min , (2)-(4), ˙ y = u, y (0) = 0 . (71) Observe that the critical cone ˜ C 2 for (71) co nsists of the p oints ( z , v , δ y ) in X 2 × U 2 × W 1 2 (0 , T ; I R ) verifying ( z , v ) ∈ C 2 , ˙ δ y = v and δ y (0) = 0 . Since the pre-Hamiltonian at p oint ( ˆ w , ˆ y ) coincides w ith the original pr e-Hamilto nian, the set of m u ltipliers for (71) consists of the p oints ( λ, ψ y ) with λ ∈ Λ . Applying the second ord er necessary condition of Theorem 3.2 at the p oin t ( ˆ w , ˆ y ) we see that, for ev ery ( z , v ) ∈ C 2 and δ y ( t ) := R t 0 v ( s )d s, there exists λ ∈ Λ suc h th at (72) Ω[ λ ]( z , v ) − α 0 ρ ′ ( k δy k 2 2 + δ y 2 ( T )) ≥ 0 , where α 0 > 0 since ˆ w is normal.

W e shall prov e that if (60) holds for some ρ > 0 , th en ˆ w satisfies γ − quadratic gro wth in the Pon tryagin sense. On the contrary , assum e that the quadratic gro wth condition (59) is not v alid. Cons equ en tly , th ere exists a sequence { v k } ⊂ U con v erging to 0 in the P ontry agin sense such that, denoting u k := ˆ u + v k , (73) J ( ˆ u + v k ) ≤ J ( ˆ u ) + o ( γ k ) , QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 23 where y k ( t ) := R t 0 v k ( s ) ds and γ k := γ ( y k , y k ( T )) .

Recall expansion (61 ). L et ( ¯ y k , ¯ h k ) := ( y k , y k ( T )) / √ γ k . Note that the ele- men ts of this sequence ha v e u nit norm in U 2 × R .

The remainder of the pr o of is split into t w o parts. (a) Using equations (61) and (74) w e pro v e that ( ¯ ξ , ¯ y , ¯ h ) ∈ P 2 , where ¯ ξ is a solution of (29). (b) W e pro v e that ( ¯ y , ¯ h ) = 0 and that it is the limit of { ( ¯ y k , ¯ h k ) } in the strong sense. This leads to a con tradiction since eac h ( ¯ y k , ¯ h k ) has unit norm.

The first inequalit y holds as H u [ λ ] v k ≥ 0 almost ev erywhere on [0 , T ] and we replace d Ω P b y Ω P 2 in view of Remark 6. By the con tin uit y of mapping Ω P 2 [ λ ] o v er X 2 × U 2 × I R deduce that 0 ≤ Z T 0 H u [ λ ]( t ) v k ( t )d t ≤ O ( γ k ) , and thus, for eac h comp osing in terv al ( c, d ) of I 0 , (76) lim k →∞ Z d c H u [ λ ]( t ) ϕ ( t ) v k ( t ) √ γ k dt = 0 , for every nonn egativ e Lip sc hitz contin u ou s fun ction ϕ with supp ϕ ⊂ ( c, d ) .

Notice th at Γ 2 is itself a Hilb ert space. Let ρ > 0 b e the constant in the p ositivit y co ndition (60) and define Λ ρ := { λ ∈ co Λ : Ω P 2 [ λ ] − ργ is w eakly l . s . c . on Γ 2 } .

In fact, consider a sequence { ( ˜ ξ k , ˜ y k , ˜ h k ) } ⊂ Γ 2 con v erging weakl y to some ( ˜ ξ , ˜ y , ˜ h ) ∈ Γ 2 .

In particular, it is w eakly l.s.c. in the subspace of Γ 2 consisting of the elemen ts for which y = 0 on I 0 . Hence, in view of Lemma 8.10 in the Ap p endix, we get (87) R [ ¯ λ ]( t ) ≥ ρ, on I + . The fol lo wing step is p ro ving th e strong co nv ergence of ¯ y k to ¯ y . With this aim we mak e use of the un iform con v ergence on compact sub sets of I 0 , whic h is p oint ed out in Lemma 8.6.

Since the sequen ce ¯ y k con v erges uniformly to ¯ y on ev ery compact subset of I 0 , defining Ω ε P 2 , 0 [ ¯ λ ]( y ) := Z I ε 0 ( R [ ¯ λ ] y , y )d t, w e get (89) lim k →∞ Ω ε P 2 , 0 [ ¯ λ ]( ¯ ξ k , ¯ y k , ¯ h k ) = Ω ε P 2 , 0 [ ¯ λ ]( ¯ ξ , ¯ y , ¯ h ) . Notice that the weak contin u it y of Ω ε P 2 , 0 [ ¯ λ ] in Γ 2 cannot be applied sin ce ( ¯ ξ k , ¯ y k , ¯ h k ) / ∈ Γ 2 .

Here w e will study the optimalit y of the extremal (108) ˆ u ( t ) := 1 on [0 , θ ] , 0 on ( θ , ˆ T ] . Observe that by the c hange of v ariables (106) w e can transform (107) in to the follo wing problem on the in terv al [0 , 1] . J := T (0) → m in , ˙ x 1 ( s ) = − T ( s ) sin x 3 ( s ) , x 1 (0) = 0 , x 1 (1) = b 1 , ˙ x 2 ( s ) = T ( s ) cos x 3 ( s ) , x 2 (0) = 0 , x 2 (1) = b 2 , ˙ x 3 ( s ) = T ( s ) u ( s ) , x 3 (0) = 0 , x 3 (1) = θ , ˙ T ( s ) = 0 , − 1 ≤ u ( s ) ≤ 1 . (109) W e obtain for state v ariables: (110) ˆ x 3 ( s ) = ˆ T s on [0 , θ / ˆ T ] , θ on ( θ / ˆ T , 1] , ˆ x 1 ( s ) = cos( ˆ T s ) − 1 on [0 , θ / ˆ T ] , ˆ T sin θ ( θ / ˆ T − s ) + cos θ − 1 on ( θ / ˆ T , 1] , ˆ x 2 ( s ) = sin ˆ T s on [0 , θ / ˆ T ] , ˆ T cos θ ( s − θ / ˆ T ) + sin θ on ( θ , ˆ T ] . Since the terminal v alues for x 1 and x 2 are fixed, the final time ˆ T is deter- mined by the p revious equalities. The pre-Hamiltonian for p roblem (109 ) is (111) H [ λ ]( s ) := T ( s )( − ψ 1 ( s ) sin x 3 ( s ) + ψ 2 ( s ) cos x 3 ( s ) + ψ 3 ( s ) u ( s )) . The fin al Lagrangian is ℓ := α 0 T (1) + 3 X j = 1 ( β j x j (0) + β j x j (1)) . As ˙ ψ 1 ≡ 0 , and ˙ ψ 2 ≡ 0 , w e get ψ 1 ≡ β 1 , ψ 2 ≡ β 2 , on [0 , 1] . Since the candidate cont rol ˆ u is singular on [ θ / ˆ T , 1] , w e ha v e H u [ λ ] ≡ 0 . By (111), we obtain (112) ψ 3 ( s ) = 0 , on [ θ / ˆ T , 1] . 32 M.S. ARONNA, J.F. BON NANS, A.V.

In addition, as the costate equation for ψ 3 is − ˙ ψ 3 = ˆ T ( − β 1 cos ˆ x 3 − β 2 sin ˆ x 3 ) , b y (110) and (112), we get (113) β 1 cos θ + β 2 sin θ = 0 . F rom (110) and (112) an d since H is constant and equal to − α 0 , we get (114) H = ˆ T ( − β 1 sin θ + β 2 cos θ ) ≡ − α 0 . Prop osition 4.

By (113) and (114), we obtain β 1 cos θ + β 2 sin θ = 0 , and − β 1 sin θ + β 2 cos θ = 0 . Supp ose, w.l.g., that cos θ 6 = 0 . Then β 1 = − β 2 sin θ cos θ and thus β 2 sin 2 θ cos θ + β 2 cos θ = 0 . W e conclude that β 2 = 0 as w ell. This imp lies ( α 0 , β 1 , β 2 , β 3 ) = 0 , whic h con tradicts the non-trivialit y condition (7) . So, α 0 > 0 , as requ ir ed. Item (ii) O bserv e that H u [ λ ]( s ) ≤ 0 , on [0 , θ / ˆ T ) , and H u [ λ ] = ψ 3 . Let us pro v e that ψ 3 is nev er 0 on [0 , θ / ˆ T ) . S upp ose th er e exists s 1 ∈ [0 , θ / ˆ T ) suc h that ψ 3 ( s 1 ) = 0 . T h us, since ψ 3 ( θ / ˆ T ) = 0 as indicated in (112), there exists s 2 ∈ ( s 1 , θ / ˆ T ) such that ˙ ψ 3 ( s 2 ) = 0 , i.e. (115) β 1 cos( ˆ T s 2 ) + β 2 sin( ˆ T s 2 ) = 0 . Equations (113) and (115) imply that tan( θ / ˆ T ) = tan( s 2 / ˆ T ) . Th is con tra- dicts θ < π . Th us ψ 3 ( s ) 6 = 0 for ev ery s ∈ [0 , θ / ˆ T ) , and consequen tly , H u [ λ ]( s ) < 0 , f or s ∈ [0 , θ / ˆ T ) . Since α 0 > 0 , then δ T = 0 for eac h element of the critical cone, where δ T is the linearized state v ariable T . Observ e that as ˆ u = 1 on [0 , θ / ˆ T ] , th en y = 0 and ξ = 0 , on [0 , θ / ˆ T ] , f or all ( ξ , δ T , y , h ) ∈ P 2 . W e look for the second v ariation in the in terv al [ θ / ˆ T , 1] . Th e Goh transfor- mation gives ξ 3 = z 3 − ˆ T y , QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 33 and since ˙ z 3 = ˆ T v, we ge t z 3 = ˆ T y and thus ξ 3 = 0 .

Notice that if ( ξ , δ T , y , h ) ∈ P 2 , th en h satisfies ξ 3 ( T ) + ˆ T h = 0 , and, as ξ 3 ( T ) = 0 , w e get h = 0 . Th us Ω[ λ ]( ξ , y , h ) = α 0 Z T 0 y 2 dt = α 0 γ ( y , h ) , on P 2 .

Conc lusion W e pro vided a set of necessary and sufficien t conditions for a bang-singular extremal. The suffi cien t condition is restricted to the scalar con trol case. These n ecessary and sufficien t conditions are close in the sense that, to pass from one to the other, one has to strengthen a n on-negativit y inequalit y transforming it in to a co ercivit y condition. This is the fir st time that a sufficient condition that is ‘almost necessary’ is established f or a b ang-singular extremal for the general May er problem. In some cases th e condition can b e easily c hec ked as it can b e seen in the example. 8. Ap pendix Lemma 8.1.

Then, f or any λ ∈ Λ , the function R [ λ ]( t ) define d in (39) is c ontinuous in t. Pr o of. Consid er definition (36). Condition V [ λ ] ≡ 0 yields S [ λ ] = C [ λ ] B , and since R [ λ ] is scalar, w e ca n write R [ λ ] = B ⊤ Q [ λ ] B − 2 C [ λ ] B 1 − ˙ C [ λ ] B − C [ λ ] ˙ B . QUADRA TIC ORDER CONDITIONS F OR BANG-SINGULAR EXTREMALS 37 Note that B = f 1 , B 1 = [ f 0 , f 1 ] , C [ λ ] = − ψ f ′ 1 , and Q [ λ ] = − ψ ( f ′′ 0 + ˆ uf ′′ 1 . Th us R [ λ ] = ψ ( f ′′ 0 + ˆ uf ′′ 1 )( f 1 , f 1 ) − 2 ψf ′ 1 ( f ′ 0 f 1 − f ′ 1 f 0 ) + ψ ( f ′ 0 + ˆ uf ′ 1 ) f ′ 1 f 1 − ψ f ′′ 1 ( f 0 + ˆ uf 1 ) f 1 − ψ f ′ 1 f ′ 1 ( f 0 + ˆ uf 1 ) = ψ [ f 1 , [ f 1 , f 0 ]] . Since f 0 and f 1 are t wice con tin uously differen tiable, w e conclude that R [ λ ] is conti nuous in time. Lemma 8.9. [28] Consider a quadr atic form Q = Q 1 + Q 2 wher e Q 1 is a L e gendr e form and Q 2 is we akly c ontinuous over some Hilb ert sp ac e. Then Q is a L e gendr e form. Lemma 8.10. [28, Theorem 3.2] Consider a r e al interval I and a quadr atic form Q over the H ilb ert sp ac e L 2 ( I ) , given by Q ( y ) := Z I y ⊤ ( t ) R ( t ) y ( t )d t. Then Q is we akly l.s.c. o ver L 2 ( I ) iff (126) R ( t ) 0 , a . e . on I . Lemma 8.11. [14, Th eorem 5] Given a Hilb ert sp ac e H , and a 1 , a 2 , . . . , a p ∈ H , set K := { x ∈ H : ( a i , x ) ≤ 0 , f or i = 1 , . . . , p } . L et M b e a c onvex and c omp act subset of I R s , and let { Q ψ : ψ ∈ M } b e a family of c ontinuous quadr atic forms over H with the mapping ψ → Q ψ b eing affine. Set M # := { ψ ∈ M : Q ψ is wea kly l . s . c . } and assume that max ψ ∈ M Q ψ ( x ) ≥ 0 , for all x ∈ K. Then max ψ ∈ M # Q ψ ( x ) ≥ 0 , for all x ∈ K. The follo wing result is an adaptation of Lemma 6.5 in [1 5]. Lemma 8.12. Consider a se quenc e { v k } ⊂ U and { y k } their primitives define d b y (28) . Cal l u k := ˆ u + v k , x k its c orr esp onding solution of (2) , and let z k denote the line arize d state c orr e sp onding to v k , i.e . the solution of (12) . Define, for e ach k ∈ I N , (127) δ x k := x k − ˆ x, η k := δ x k − z k , γ k := γ ( y k , y k ( T )) . Supp ose that { v k } c onver ges to 0 in the Pontryagin sense. Then (i) (128) ˙ η k = m X i =0 ˆ u i f ′ i ( ˆ x ) η k + m X i =1 v i,k f ′ i ( ˆ x ) δ x k + ζ k , 38 M.S. ARONNA, J.F. BON NANS, A.V. DMITRUK AND P .A.

(i,ii) Consider the second ord er T a ylor expan s ions of f i , f i ( x k ) = f i ( ˆ x ) + f ′ i ( ˆ x ) δ x k + 1 2 f ′′ i ( ˆ x )( δ x k , δ x k ) + o ( | δ x k ( t ) | 2 ) . W e can w r ite (130) ˙ δ x k = m X i =0 u i,k f ′ i ( ˆ x ) δ x k + m X i =1 v i,k f i ( ˆ x ) + ζ k , with (131) ζ k := 1 2 m X i =0 u i,k f ′′ i ( ˆ x )( δ x k , δ x k ) + o ( | δx k ( t ) | 2 ) m X i =0 u i,k . As { u k } is b oun ded in L ∞ and k δx k k ∞ → 0 , w e get k ζ k k ∞ → 0 and the follo w ing L 2 − norm b ound: k ζ k k 2 ≤ cons t. m X i =0 k u i,k ( δ x k , δ x k ) k 2 + o ( γ k ) k m X i =0 u i,k k 1 ≤ cons t. k u k k ∞ k δ x k k 2 2 = O ( γ k ) ≤ o ( √ γ k ) . (132) Let us lo ok for the differen tial equation of η k defined in (127). By (130), and addin g and substracting the term P m i =1 ˆ u i f ′ i ( ˆ x ) δ x k w e obtai n ˙ η k = m X i =0 ˆ u i f ′ i ( ˆ x ) η k + m X i =1 v i,k f ′ i ( ˆ x ) δ x k + ζ k . Th us w e obtain ( i). Applying Gronw all’s Lemma to this last differenti al equation we get (133) k η k k ∞ ≤ k m X i =1 v i,k f ′ i ( ˆ x ) δ x k + ζ k k 1 . Since k v k k ∞ < N and k v k k 1 → 0 , w e also fi nd that k v k k 2 → 0 . Applying the Cauch y-Sc hw artz inequalit y to (133), from (132) w e get (ii).
