Abstract

This paper is devoted to the study, for the first time in the literature, of optimal control problems for sweeping processes governed by integro-differential inclusions of the Volterra type with different classes of control functions acting in nonconvex moving sets, external dynamic perturbations, and integral parts of the sweeping dynamics. We establish the existence of optimal solutions and then obtain necessary optimality conditions for a broad class of local minimizers in such problems. Our approach to deriving necessary optimality conditions is based on the method of discrete approximations married to basic constructions and calculus rules of first-order and second-order variational analysis and generalized differentiation. The obtained necessary optimality conditions are expressed entirely in terms of the problem data and are illustrated by nontrivial examples that include applications to optimal control models of non-regular electrical circuits.
