Abstract
We study the turnpike property for the nonconvex optimal control problems described by the differential inclusion x˙∈a(x). We study the infinite horizon problem of maximizing the functional ∫0Tu(x(t))dt as T grows to infinity. The turnpike theorem is proved for the case when a turnpike set consists of several optimal stationary points.
