An infinite horizon optimal control problem for some switching systems
We study an infinite horizon optimal control problem for a system
with two state variables. They are respectively the input and the output of
either a delayed relay or a finite sum of delayed relays. The system exhibits
hysteresis and the output of the relay is discontinuous. We consider two different
switching rules for the relay. We characterize the value functions by
the unique viscosity solution of some suitably coupled Dirichlet problems for
Hamilton-Jacobi equations.
