Equivalence between Nonlinear H ∞ Control Problems and Existence of Viscosity Solutions of... In this paper we extend to completely general nonlinear systems the result stating that the ${{\cal H}}_\infty$ suboptimal control problem is solved if and only if the corresponding Hamilton—Jacobi—Isaacs (HJI) equation has a nonnegative (super)solution. This is well known for linear systems, using the Riccati equation instead of the HJI equation. We do this using the theory of differential games and viscosity solutions. http://www.deepdyve.com/assets/images/DeepDyve-Logo-lg.png Applied Mathematics and Optimization Springer Journals
