  • Abstract
    An example is used to show why some solutions to singular optimal control problems satisfy the generalized Legendre-Clebsch condition, but violate Jacobson´s necessary condition. This example also demonstrates that Jacobson´s condition may help in establishing if and when switching from a singular to a nonsingular subarc occurs in some problems.
