Abstract

We investigate the value function of an infinite horizon variational problem in the infinite-dimensional setting. First, we provide an upper estimate of its Dini–Hadamard subdifferential in terms of the Clarke subdifferential of the Lipschitz continuous integrand and the Clarke normal cone to the graph of the set-valued mapping describing dynamics. Second, we derive a necessary condition for optimality in the form of an adjoint inclusion that grasps a connection between the Euler–Lagrange condition and the maximum principle. The main results are applied to the derivation of the necessary optimality condition of the spatial Ramsey growth model.
