Legacy of the Paper by Kurt Friedrichs Entitled Ein Verfahren der Variationsrechnung, das Minimum Eines Integral als das Maximum Eines Anderen Ausdruckes Darzustellen.

Abstract

For certain aspects of the calculus of variations and optimal control theory, the paper of Kurt Friedrichs listed in the title of this report has had a strong influence, both directly and indirectly. The paper is devoted to a brief historical survey of this influence, especially in the area of convex analysis. In addition, a translation of Friedrichs' paper is appended to this report. (Author)
