Abstract
This paper is devoted to the application of the input/state-invariant linear quadratic (LQ) problem in order to solve the problem of coexistence of species in competition in a chemostat. The methodology that is used has for objective to guarantee the local positive input/state-invariance of the nonlinear system which describes the chemostat model by ensuring the input/stateinvariance of its linear approximation around an equilibrium. This is achieved by applying an appropriate LQ-optimal control to the system, following two different approaches, namely a receding horizon method and an inverse problem approach.
