Main Results

Extension principle and degenerate control problems

On the basis of the extension principle, a series of new nontraditional optimal control methods were elaborated and effectively applied to theoretically complicated degenerate problems with turnpike solutions. Results are presented in books (Gurman, 1997; Gurman, 1998; Gurman, Ukhin, 2005).

Geometric control theory

Geometric methods are fruitfully applied to many controllability and optimal control problems. In particular, complete controllability conditions for bilinear systems and invariant control systems were obtained. Results are systematically presented in books (Agrachev, Sachkov, 2004; Agrachev, Sachkov, 2005).

Control of oscillations

Control problems for the wave equation with boundary conditions of the first, second, third kind, and of mixed type, are extensively studied. There was also stated and studied the problem on oscillations control for multichain elastic system with a bounded control resource oriented towards applications to large constructions in the space. Results are presented in the monograph (Znamenskaya, 2004).

 

Algorithms and program systems for modeling and control

New first-order and second-order iteration methods for the search and locally optimal synthesis of control are developed. The methods are based on sufficient local optimality conditions and local description of attainable sets, and on sequential improvement of the model with wide possibilities of adaptation to external conditions.

There are elaborated new methods of approximate synthesis of optimal control on the basis of polynomial approximation of solutions of Bellman equation and trajectory recovery of Bellman-Krotov function.

The concept and experimental version of the Intelligent System for Control Optimization is developed and equipped with a complex of programs and tutorial supporting multimethod procedures of search of optimal control.

The web page describing the project and containing description of the multimethod intelligent system, algorithms, and test problems, was created (http://www.botik.ru/~cprc/ISOU). Results are described in book (Gurman, Ukhin, 2004).

Research on regional problems (with the example of Pereslavl region)

  1. Analysis of innovative activity at large enterprises of the region, including innovations of ecological and management direction.
  2. Investigations on the effect of innovations on economics and environment.
  3. Development of mathematical socio-ecological-economical model of region with account of innovation processes and the study of optimal strategies and scenarios of sustainable development.
Results are presented in monograph: (Gurman, Ryumina, 2001, 2003).
