Equivalent formulations of optimal control problems with maximum cost and applications

We revisit the optimal control problem with maximum cost with the objective to provide different equivalent reformulations suitable to numerical methods. We propose two reformulations in terms of extended Mayer problems with constraint, and another one in terms of a differential inclusion with upper-semi continuous right member but without constraint. For this last one we also propose an approximation scheme of the optimal value from below. These approaches are illustrated and discussed on several examples.
