Abstract:
We find the three-dimensional subspaces of four-dimensional Lie algebras which generate the algebras, as well as abnormal extremals on the connected Lie groups determined by these algebras and endowed with the left-invariant sub-Finsler quasimetrics defined by seminorms on the subspaces. Using the structure constants of Lie algebras and dual seminorms, we establish a criterion for the strict abnormality of the extremals.
Keywords:extremal, left-invariant sub-Finsler quasimetric, Lie algebra, optimal control, polar, Pontryagin maximum principle, (strictly) abnormal extremal, time-optimal control problem.
