Abstract
The infinite-horizon optimal control problem with stability in the presence of single-input, inputquadratic nonlinear systems is addressed and tackled in
this paper. In addition, it is shown that similar ideas can
be extended to study the property of passivity of the underlying input-quadratic system from a given output. The
constructive design of the optimal solution revolves around
the interesting fact that the property of optimality of the
closed-loop underlying system is shown to be locally equivalent to the property that an input-affine system possesses
an L2-gain less than one from a virtual disturbance signal.
The global version of the statement requires a technical
condition on the graph of the storage function of the latter
auxiliary plant, hence leads to the new notion of graphical
storage function. Finally, the theory is corroborated by the
application to the optimal control of the movable plane positioning in micro-mechanical systems (MEMS) actuators.
