Abstract
A variational interpretation of the dynamics of nonlinear LC circuits is given. An optimal control problem is associated to the circuit that asks for minimizing the time integral of magnetic coenergy minus electric energy subject to Kirchhoff's current law as a dynamic constraint. Via the Pontryagin maximum principle, various mathematical models are obtained for the circuit, both of a Lagrangian and a Hamiltonian nature.
