DNSS points arise in optimal control problems that exhibit multiple optimal solutions. A DNSS pointnamed alphabetically after Deckert and Nishimura, Sethi, and Skibais an indifference point in an optimal control problem such that starting from such a point, the problem has more than one different optimal solutions. A good discussion of such points can be found in Grass et al.〔Grass, D., Caulkins, J.P., Feichtinger, G., Tragler, G., Behrens, D.A. (2008). ''Optimal Control of Nonlinear Processes: With Applications in Drugs, Corruption, and Terror''. Springer. ISBN 978-3-540-77646-8.〕 == Definition == Of particular interest here are discounted infinite horizon optimal control problems that are autonomous.〔Sethi, S.P. and Thompson, G.L. (2000). ''Optimal Control Theory: Applications to Management Science and Economics''. Second Edition. Springer. ISBN 0-387-28092-8 and ISBN 0-7923-8608-6. Slides are available at http://www.utdallas.edu/~sethi/OPRE7320presentation.html〕 These problems can be formulated as : s.t. : where is the discount rate, and are the state and control variables, respectively, at time , functions and are assumed to be continuously differentiable with respect to their arguments and they do not depend explicitly on time , and is the set of feasible controls and it also is explicitly independent of time . Furthermore, it is assumed that the integral converges for any admissible solution . In such a problem with one-dimensional state variable , the initial state is called a ''DNSS point'' if the system starting from it exhibits multiple optimal solutions or equilibria. Thus, at least in the neighborhood of , the system moves to one equilibrium for and to another for . In this sense, is an indifference point from which the system could move to either of the two equilibria. For two-dimensional optimal control problems, Grass et al.〔 and Zeiler et al.〔Zeiler, I., Caulkins, J., Grass, D., Tragler, G. (2009).
