Abstract :
This paper introduces a meaningful singular optimal control for a time-invariant linear-discrete system. The complex structures of the singular arc are studied in detail. Existence, uniqueness, and optimality are proved. A necessary and sufficient condition for the nonexistence of singular arc for linear-discrete systems is given along with a sufficient condition for its existence.
