Abstract
With the help of a symplectic technique the concept of a field of extremals in the classical calculus of variations is generalized to optimal control problems. This enables us to get new optimality conditions that are equally suitable for regular, bang-bang, and singular extremals. Special attention is given to systems of the form with a scalar control. New pointwise conditions for optimality and sufficient conditions for local controllability are obtained as a consequence of the general theory.
