Dynamic optimization and optimal control problems form the backbone of numerous applications in engineering, economics and the natural sciences. These methodologies involve determining a time-varying ...

We develop a novel framework, the implicit hitting set approach, for solving a class of combinatorial optimization problems. The explicit hitting set problem is as follows: given a set U and a family ...
