✦ Synopsis

Earlier work has dealt with controls which guarantee that every trajectory of a given dynamical system remains outside (avoids) a prescribed set (anti-target) for all time. In the present treatment, we permit the intersection of the anti-target but consider two cases of avoidance: the anti-target must be avoided during a prescribed time interval (finite-time avoidance), or the anti-target must be avoided for all time after some calculable or prescribed time interval (ultimate avoidance). Sufficient conditions are presented for these two kinds of avoidance. The use of these conditions is illustrated by two examples.

It is suggested that in stochastic control problems where there is uncertainty about the current state the correct estimate of the state to be used for generating certainty equivalent controls is not always the mean value of the probability distribution for the state.

This note considers the spread of HIV in a single prison where there is a constant rate of departure and replacement of prisoners. Some of the incoming prisoners will be HIV , and homogeneous mixing within the prison is assumed. HIV is thus spread sexually or by the sharing of intravenous drug users
