An optimal chaos control procedure is proposed. The aim of using this method is to stabilize the chaotic behavior of forced continuous-time nonlinear systems by using an approximation sequence technique and linear optimal control. The idea of the approximation technique is to use a sequence of linear, time-varying equations to approximate the solution of nonlinear systems. In each of these equations, the linear-quadratic optimal tracking control is applied. The purpose is to find a linear time-varying feedback controller which produces an optimized trajectory that converges to a desired signal. This controller is then used in the original nonlinear system. As an example, the procedure is proved to work in the Duffing oscillator and the chaotic pendulum, in which the goal is to direct chaotic trajectories of these systems to a period-n orbit.

We propose a new method to solve input constrained optimal control problems for autonomous nonlinear systems affine in control. We then extend the method to compute the bang-bang control solutions under the symmetric control constraints. The most attractive aspect of the proposed technique is that it enables the use of linear quadratic control theory on the input constrained linear and nonlinear systems. We illustrate the effectiveness of our technique both on linear and nonlinear examples and compare our results with those of the literature.

We consider a Bolza problem governed by a linear time-varying Darboux-Goursat system and a nonlinear cost functional, without the assumption of the convexity of an integrand with respect to the state variable. We prove a theorem on the existence of an optimal process in the classes of absolutely continuous trajectories of two variables and measurable controls with values in a fixed compact and convex set.

A necessary condition for the existence of the solution of the Riccati differential equation for both linear, time varying systems and nonlinear systems is introduced. First, a necessary condition for the existence of the solution of the Riccati differential equation for linear, time varying systems is proposed. Then, the sufficient conditions to satisfy the necessary condition are given. After that, the existence of the solution of the Riccati differential equation is generalized for nonlinear systems.
