It introduces students to the concept of the maximum principle in continuous (as well as discrete) time by combining dynamic programming and Kuhn-Tucker theory. While some mathematical background is needed, the emphasis of the book is not on mathematical rigor, but on modeling realistic situations encountered in business and economics. It applies optimal control theory to the functional areas of management including finance, production and marketing, as well as the economics of growth and of natural resources. In addition, it features material on stochastic Nash and Stackelberg differential games and an adverse selection model in the principal-agent framework. Exercises are included in each chapter, while the answers to selected exercises help deepen readers understanding of the material covered. Also included are appendices of supplementary material on the solution of differential equations, the calculus of variations and its ties to the maximum principle, and special topics including the Kalman filter, certainty equivalence, singular control, a global saddle point theorem, Sethi-Skiba points, and distributed parameter systems. Optimal control methods are used to determine optimal ways to control a dynamic system. The theoretical work in this field serves as the foundation for the book, in which the author applies it to business management problems developed from his own research and classroom instruction. The new edition has been refined and updated, making it a valuable resource for graduate courses on applied optimal control theory, but also for financial and industrial engineers, economists, and operational researchers interested in applying dynamic optimization in their fields. 001441481 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed January 12, 2022). 001441481 650_0 $$aManagement$$xMathematical models. 001441481 650_0 $$aControl theory. 001441481 650_0 $$aOperations research. 001441481 650_6 $$aGestion$$xModèles mathématiques. 001441481 650_6 $$aThéorie de la commande. 001441481 650_6 $$aRecherche opérationnelle. 001441481 655_0 $$aElectronic books. 001441481 77608 $$iPrint version: $$z3030917444$$z9783030917449$$w(OCoLC)1280390690 001441481 830_0 $$aSpringer texts in business and economics. 001441481 852__ $$bebk 001441481 85640 $$3Springer Nature$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=https://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-030-91745-6$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 001441481 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:1441481$$pGLOBAL_SET 001441481 980__ $$aBIB 001441481 980__ $$aEBOOK 001441481 982__ $$aEbook 001441481 983__ $$aOnline 001441481 994__ $$a92$$bISE
