contents For an infinite-horizon control problem, the optimal control can be represented by the stable manifold of the characteristic Hamiltonian system of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation in a semiglobal domain. In this paper, we first theoretically prove that if an approximation is sufficiently close to the exact stable manifold of the HJB equation in a certain sense, then the control derived from this approximation stabilizes the system and is nearly optimal. Then, based on the theoretical result, we propose a deep learning algorithm to approximate the stable manifold and compute optimal feedback control numerically. The algorithm relies on adaptive data generation through finding trajectories randomly within the stable manifold. Such kind of algorithm is grid-free basically, making it potentially applicable to a wide range of high-dimensional nonlinear systems. We demonstrate the effectiveness of our method through two examples: stabilizing the Reaction Wheel Pendulums and controlling the parabolic Allen-Cahn equation.
