Abstract

Viability tubes and invariant tubes of a differential inclusion are defined and then used to build "bridges" between an initial set K and a "target" C that at least one trajectory (respectively all trajectories) follows for leaving K and reaching C in finite or infinite horizon. (This is the target or K-C problem). We study some asymptotic properties of these tubes (it is shown in particular that targets are necessarily viability domains) and viability tubes are characterized by showing that the indicator functions of their graphs are solutions to the "contingent Hamilton-Jacobi equation". Some examples of viability tubes are provided.
