Stability Analysis of Optimal Control Problems with a Second-order State Constraint
Abstract
This paper gives stability results for nonlinear optimal control problems subject to a regular state constraint of second-order. The strengthened Legendre-Clebsch condition is assumed to hold, and no assumption on the structure of the contact set is made. Under a weak second-order sufficient condition (taking into account the active constraints), we show that the solutions are Lipschitz continuous w.r.t. the perturbation parameter in the $L^2$ norm, and Hölder continuous in the $L^\infty$ norm. We use a generalized implicit function theorem in metric spaces by Dontchev and Hager [SIAM J. Control Optim., 1998]. The difficulty is that multipliers associated with second-order state constraints have a low regularity (they are only bounded measures). We obtain Lipschitz stability of a ``primitive'' of the state constraint multiplier.
