Abstract

Pontrjagin's maximum principle holds for a switchable distribution of C¹-regular nonautonomous vector fields on a finite dimensional C²-manifold. The flow-theoretic proof does not require that the distribution contains those autonomous fields that correspond to constant controllers in the classical formulation.
