  • Abstract
    In this paper, we will discuss some new developments in the design of numerical methods for optimal control problems for controlled Lagrangian systems. We will construct these geometric integrators using discrete variational calculus. The derived techniques are also valid for reduced systems, including systems defined on Lie algebras and Atiyah bundles. We will illustrate with several theoretical examples the wide range of application of this theory.
