'''Differential Dynamic Programming''' (DDP) is a second-order iterative algorithm of [[trajectory optimization]]. The algorithm was developed in the late 1960's, and was presented in a book by Jacobson and Mayne<ref>{{cite book|last=Mayne|first= David H. and Jacobson, David Q.|title=Differential dynamic programming|year=1970|publisher=American Elsevier Pub. Co.|___location=New York|isbn=0444000704|url=http://books.google.com/books/about/Differential_dynamic_programming.html?id=tA-oAAAAIAAJ}}</ref>. DDP finds a locally-optimal trajectory that emanates from a fixed initial state <math>x_0</math>
