Extension of switch point algorithm to boundary-value problems

In an earlier paper ( https://doi.org/10.1137/21M1393315 ), the switch point algorithm was developed for solving optimal control problems whose solutions are either singular or bang-bang or both singular and bang-bang, and which possess a finite number of jump discontinuities in an optimal control a...

Description
Summary:In an earlier paper ( https://doi.org/10.1137/21M1393315 ), the switch point algorithm was developed for solving optimal control problems whose solutions are either singular or bang-bang or both singular and bang-bang, and which possess a finite number of jump discontinuities in an optimal control at the points in time where the solution structure changes. The class of control problems that were considered had a given initial condition, but no terminal constraint. The theory is now extended to include problems with both initial and terminal constraints, a structure that often arises in boundary-value problems. Substantial changes to the theory are needed to handle this more general setting. Nonetheless, the derivative of the cost with respect to a switch point is again the jump in the Hamiltonian at the switch point.
