A sufficient optimality condition for delayed state-linear optimal control problems
We give answer to an open question by proving a sufficient optimality
condition for state-linear optimal control problems with time delays in state
and control variables. In the proof of our main result, we transform a delayed
state-linear optimal control problem to an equivalent non-delayed problem. This
allows us to use a well-known theorem that ensures a sufficient optimality
condition for non-delayed state-linear optimal control problems. An example is
given in order to illustrate the obtained result.Comment: This is a preprint of a paper whose final and definite form is with
