Blending theory and applications, this book is a vital resource for graduates and researchers. It offers a broad theoretic base, synthesising symplectic geometry and optimal control theory, essential for mechanical, geometric or space engineering problems. The theory is tested through challenging problems and is rich with fresh insights and ideas.

Geometric control theory concerns the differential equations described by non-commuting vector fields. It builds ideas from the theory of differential systems and the calculus of variations into a cohesive mathematical framework applicable to a wide range of problems from differential geometry, applied mathematics, physics and engineering.
