Abstract

This paper is directed to the analysis of regularity properties of optimal solutions for a nonlinear control problem with convex control constraints. Since the problem formulation is given typically in L ∞-terms, we introduce first the essential limit set as a tool for the local investigation of L ∞-functions. Under second-order conditions of the coercivity type on the solution, a structural result is obtained characterizing the local behavior of the optimal control by means of Lipschitz continuous functions. Further, the consequences for certain discrete approximations are discussed; for uniquely solvable problems, we show the Lipschitz continuity of the optimal control.
