Abstract
In our preceding paper [Sun B, Wu MX. Appl. Anal. 2013;92:901-921], we investigated an optimal control problem of age-structured population dynamics for spread of universally fatal diseases and derived the necessary optimality condition for the problem in fixed final horizon case. As a follow-up, in this paper, under weaker additional conditions, we address ourselves to the investigation of the foregoing system in free final horizon case and present further new results of current interests.
