Abstract:
Under consideration is the sub-Riemannian geodesic flow for the Goursat distribution. We find the level surfaces of the first integrals that are in involution and study the trajectories in the phase space whose projections to the horizontal plane are closed curves.
Keywords:
optimal control, sub-Riemannian geometry, Goursat distribution, geodesic flow.
