Abstract

In this paper, we extend neighboring extremal optimal control, which is well established for optimal control problems defined on a Euclidean space (see, e.g., [8]) to the setting of Riemannian manifolds. We further specialize the results to the case of Lie groups. An example along with simulation results is presented.
