Discrete rigid body dynamics and optimal control

Abstract

We analyze an alternative formulation of the rigid body equations, their relationship with the discrete rigid body equations of Moser-Veselov (1991) and their formulation as an optimal control problem. In addition we discuss a general class of discrete optimal control problems.
