Mathematical formulation
The problem is given by
Failed to parse (unknown function "\begin{array}"): {\displaystyle \begin{array}{llcl} \displaystyle \min_{x, u} &-1 + x_1(t_f) + x_2(t_f) \\[1.5ex] \mbox{s.t.} & \dot{x}_1 & = & u ( 10 x_2 - x_1), \\ & \dot{x}_2 & = & u ( x_1 - 10 x_2) - (1 - u \, x_2) , \\ & x(t_0) &=& (1, 0)^T, \\ & u(t) &\in& \[0,1\]. \end{array} }
