Approximation of an optimal control problem on a network with a perturbed problem in the whole space
A classical optimal control problem posed in the whole space R^2 is perturbed by a singular term of magnitude $ε$^{-1} aimed at driving the trajectories to a prescribed network $Γ$. We are interested in the link between the limit problem, as $ε$ $\rightarrow$ 0, and some optimal control problems on networks studied in the literature. We prove that the sequence of trajectories admits a subsequential limit evolving on $Γ$. Moreover, in the case of the Eikonal equation, we show that the sequence of value functions associated with the perturbed optimal control problems converges to a limit which, in particular, coincides with the value function of the expected optimal control problem set on the network $Γ$.
