MAGMA: Multiplier-Augmented Geometric Motion Algorithm
arXiv cs.RO0 views
arXiv:2610.21852v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Solving optimal control problems for high-dimensional mechanical systems subject to constraints remains challenging due to nonlinear dynamics and non-convex feasible sets. This paper introduces MAGMA(Multiplier-Augmented Geometric Motion Algorithm), an Affine Geometric Heat Flow (AGHF)-based trajectory optimizer that incorporates an augmented Lagrangian framework solved via a primal-dual flow. A theoretical characterization of the primal-dual AGHF is provided, establishing that MAGMA is a gradient flow on an appropriately defined energy. MAGMA is validated across a variety of challenging trajectory generation problems with obstacles, state limits, and actuation limits. Comparative evaluations against state-of-the-art solvers demonstrate that MAGMA achieves high quality solutions with significantly reduced tuning effort on the hardest problems.
