Abstract

The globally optimal solution of an optimal control problem can be characterized in terms of the value function. This function can be computed as the solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman PDE or the equivalent Bellman equation. We propose an adaptive multilevel scheme based on radial basis functions for space discretizing these equations and demonstrate the efficiency of this approach by numerical experiments.
