Optimal control of Volterra integral equations via triangular functions

This paper presented an approximate method for solving optimal control problem of Volterra integral equations. The method is based upon orthogonal triangular functions. The error estimates and associated theorems have been proved for optimal control and cost functionals. Some numerical examples illustrate the efficiency of the proposed method.
