Here, we specifically focus on the seminal work by Nordhaus [14, 15] on the economy-climate link. We extend the Nordhaus type model to include optimal policies for mitigation, adaptation and infrastructure investment studying the dynamics of the transition to a low fossil-fuel economy. Formally, the model gives rise to an optimal control problem consisting of a dynamic system with five-dimensional state vector representing stocks of private capital, green capital, public capital, stock of brown energy in the ground, and carbon emissions. The objective function captures preferences over consumption but is also impacted by atmospheric $ mathrm{CO}_2 $ and by mitigation and adaptation policies. Given the numerous challenges to climate change policies the control vector is eight-dimensional comprising mitigation, adaptation and infrastructure investment. Our solutions are characterized by turnpike property and the optimal policies that accomplish the objective of keeping the $ mathrm{CO}_2 $ levels within bound are characterized by a significant proportion of investment in public capital going to mitigation in the initial periods. When initial levels of $ mathrm{CO}_{2} $ are high, adaptation efforts also start immediately, but during the initial period, they account for a smaller proportion of government's public investment.","PeriodicalId":48889,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Control and Related Fields","volume":"62 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136297316","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

(2014) to deal with inverse source problems – in the framework of shape optimization for solving the exterior Bernoulli problem, a prototypical model of stationary free boundary problems. The idea of the method is to transform the overdetermined problem to a complex boundary value problem with a complex Robin boundary condition coupling the Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions on the free boundary. Then, we optimize the cost function constructed by the imaginary part of the solution in the whole domain in order to identify the free boundary. We also prove the existence of the shape derivative of the complex state with respect to the domain. Afterwards, we compute the shape gradient of the cost functional, and characterize its shape Hessian at the optimal domain under a strong, and then a mild regularity assumption on the domain. We then prove the ill-posedness of the proposed shape problem by showing that the latter expression is compact. Also, we devise an iterative algorithm based on a Sobolev gradient scheme via finite element method to solve the minimization problem. Finally, we illustrate the applicability of the method through several numerical examples, both in two and three spatial dimensions.","PeriodicalId":48889,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Control and Related Fields","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-05-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73829923","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Thereafter, we establish a primal first order necessary optimality condition (Bouligand (B) stationarity), which is derived from the directional differentiability of the solution operator. By using a local regularization of the nonsmooth term and carrying out an asymptotic analysis thereafter, we rigourously derive a weak stationarity system for local minima. By combining the B- and weak stationarity conditions, and using the regularity of the Lagrange multiplier, we are able to obtain a strong stationarity system that includes an inequality for the scalar product between the symmetrized gradient of the state and the Lagrange multiplier.","PeriodicalId":48889,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Control and Related Fields","volume":"93 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.2,"publicationDate":"2022-03-06","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"76259546","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Introduction. In this article, one considers the time minimal control problem for a smooth system of the form dq dt = f(q, u), where q ∈ M is an open subset of R n and the set of admissible control is the set U of bounded measurable mapping u(·) valued in a control domain U , where U is a two-dimensional manifold of R with boundary. According to the Maximum Principle [14], time minimal solutions are extremal curves satisfying the constrained Hamiltonian equation q̇ = ∂H ∂p , ṗ = − ∂q , H(q, p, u) = M(q, p), (1) where H(q, p, u) = p ·F (q, u) is the pseudo (or non maximized) Hamiltonian, while M(q, p) = maxv∈U H(q, p, u) is the true (maximized) Hamiltonian. A projection of an extremal curve z = (q, p) on the q-space is called a geodesic. Moreover since M is constant along an extremal curve and linear with respect to p, the extremal can be either exceptional (abnormal) if M = 0 or non exceptional if M 6= 0. To refine this classification, an extremal subarc can be either regular if the control belongs to the boundary of U or singular if it belongs to the interior and satisfies the condition ∂H ∂u = 0. Taking q(0) = q0 the accessibility set A(q0, tf ) in time tf is the set ∪u(·)∈U q(tf , x0, u), where t 7→ q(·, q0, u) denotes the solution of the system, with q(0) = q0 and clearly since the time minimal trajectories belongs to the boundary of the accessibility set, the Maximum Principle is a parameterization of this boundary. 2020 Mathematics Subject Classification.
