  • Abstract
    A control law u0guaranteeing a prespecified terminal error is found subject to bounded uncertainties in the initial state. In the general case, this u0is described by a finite-dimensional minimax point y_{0}^{*} . A refinement of this result is given for the case when the set of possible initial states is polyhedral convex.
