This paper presents a backward differential flow for solving singular optimal control problems. By using Krotov equivalent\r\ntransformation, the cost functional is converted to a class of global optimization problems. Some properties of the flow are given\r\nto reveal the significant relationship between the dynamic of the flow and the geometry of the feasible set. The proposed method is\r\nalso used in solving a class of variational problems. Some examples are illustrated.
