Pontryagin maximum principle for fractional delay differential equations and controlled weakly singular Volterra delay integral equations

Abstract

In this article, we explore two distinct issues. Initially, we examine the utilization of the Pontriagin maximum principle in relation to fractional delay differential equations. Additionally, we discuss the optimal approach for solving the control problem for equation (1.1) and its associated payoff function (1.2). Following that, we investigate the application of the Pontryagin Maximum principle in the context of Volterra delay integral equations (1.3). We strengthen the results of our study by providing illustrative examples at the end of the article.
