The source files to the lecture notes are placed in the lecturenotes folder. The lecture notes are written in LaTeX, and then compiled to PDF with pdfTeX. There are 3 sets of lecture notes:
notes1.tex,notes1.pdf– Dynamic programmingnotes2.tex,notes2.pdf– Optimal controlnotes3.tex,notes3.pdf– Differential equationsphasediagrams.key,phasediagrams.pdf– Phase diagrams included innotes3.tex
The source files to the problem sets are placed in the problemsets folder. The problem sets are written in LaTeX, and then compiled to PDF with pdfTeX. There are 4 problem sets:
ps1.tex,ps1.pdf– Problem set on dynamic programmingps2.tex,ps2.pdf– Problem set on optimal controlps3.tex,ps3.pdf– Problem set on differential equationsps4.tex,ps4.pdf– Cumulative problem set covering all three topics
Solutions to the problems sets are available to instructors upon request.
The folders also contain the LaTeX style files used to format the lecture notes and problem sets:
