This chapter represents the basic concepts of Classical Optimal Control related to the Maximum Principle. The formulation of the general optimal control problem in the Bolza (as well as in the Mayer and the Lagrange) form is presented. The Maximum Principle, which gives the necessary conditions of optimality, for various problems with a fixed and variable horizon is formulated and proven. All necessary mathematical claims are given in the Appendix, which makes this material self-contained.
