In this paper we use the Dubovitski–Milyutin formalism to establish necessary and sufficient conditions for optimality in a nonlinear, distributed parameter control system, with convex cost criterion and initial condition not given a priori (that is it is not a known function but instead it belongs to a specified set). Our result extends a recent theorem of Lions. Finally a concrete example is worked out in detail.
