The chapter analyzes differential flatness theory for the control of single asset and multi-asset option price dynamics, described by PDE models. Through these control methods, stabilization of distributed parameter (PDE modelled) financial systems is achieved and convergence to specific financial performance indexes is made possible. The main financial model used in the chapter is the Black-Scholes PDE. By applying semi-discretization and a finite differences scheme the single-asset (equivalently multi-asset) Black-Scholes PDE is transformed into a state-space model consisting of ordinary nonlinear differential equations. For this set of differential equations it is shown that differential flatness properties hold. This enables to solve the associated control problem and to stabilize the options' dynamics. By showing the feasibility of control of the single-asset (equivalently multi-asset) Black-Scholes PDE it is proven that through selected purchases and sales during the trading procedure, the price of options can be made to converge and stabilize at specific reference values.

The problem of planning flight trajectories is studied for multiple unmanned combat aerial vehicles (UCAVs) performing a cooperated air-to-ground target attack (CA/GTA) mission. Several constraints including individual and cooperative constraints are modeled, and an objective function is constructed. Then, the cooperative trajectory planning problem is formulated as a cooperative trajectory optimal control problem (CTP-OCP). Moreover, in order to handle the temporal constraints, a notion of the virtual time based strategy is introduced. Afterwards, a planning algorithm based on the differential flatness theory and B-spline curves is developed to solve the CTP-OCP. Finally, the proposed approach is demonstrated using a typical CA/GTA mission scenario, and the simulation results show that the proposed approach is feasible and effective.
