Sinossi

The only monograph on the topic, this book concerns geometric methods in the theory of differential equations with quadratic right-hand sides, closely related to the calculus of variations and optimal control theory. Based on the author’s lectures, the book is addressed to undergraduate and graduate students, and scientific researchers.

Recensione

".... This book was written by a master expositor and is required reading for anyone who is intersted in pursuing a serious study of the Riccati equation. The first four chapters should be required reading for every graduate student who is thinking about studying geometric or mathematical control theory. I do not know of a better overview of the matheamtics required to do modern geometric control theory. Every control theorist should have a well-worn copy of this book on his bookshelf. ... Zelikin has written a book that will be well read for many years...."

Siam Review, Vol. 43/1, March 2001

"... The text requires good background, but will be a useful reference."
