Design of Optimal Policies: A Variable Structure Control Approach

Phillip Fanchon () and Sami Fadali

Economic Change and Restructuring, 1994, vol. 27, issue 2, 93-116

Abstract: This paper introduces methods of variable structure control (VSC) theory to economists. The VSC design is based on closed loop optimal control solutions. It is shown that VSC can yield stable solutions in the presence of parameter errors whereas conventional closed loop optimal control solutions become unstable. The methodology is applied to a simple economic model. Copyright 1994 by Kluwer Academic Publishers
