Abstract:
I will introduce a class of optimal control problems intimately linked to symmetry. It turns out that if the cost function depends only on the Lie algebra, these problems can be solved, once the solution of an Euler-Poincaré equation is known. These problems can be extended to cost functions depending on both a Lie algebra and a configuration space variable. Examples will be given to show the close link to many problems in mechanics.
