My interests
My interests include mostly geometric structures related to Physics and Control Theory, in particular, Lie algebroids and their generalizations. My results in this field include: developing Optimal Control Theory in the framework of almost-Lie algebroids [1,2], describing Jacobi vector fields for Lagrangian and Hamiltonian systems on algebroids [3] and developing an algebroid framework for higher-order Lagrangian mechanics and variational calculus [4,7,13]. I also applied an algebroid-inspired approach to the problem of comparison of constraints dynamics in classical mechanics obtaining new results for Chaplygin systems [8,14]. I am also interested in geometry of graded bundles [9,11].Recently I switched my interest back to classical Control Theory, developing a contact-theoretic version of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle [10]. Now my efforts concentrate on applications of this approach to sub-Riemannian geodesic problems [10,12,B,C].
I collaborate mostly with prof. Janusz Grabowski (IM PAN), prof. Witold Respondek (INSA Rouen) and dr Mikołaj Rotkiewicz (University of Warsaw).
