We consider a time-optimal control problem on the plane with a circular vectogram of velocities and a non-convex target set with a boundary having a finite number of points of discontinuity of curvature. We study the problem of identifying and constructing scattering curves that form a singular set of the optimal result function in the case when the points of discontinuity of curvature have one-sided curvatures of different signs. It is shown that these points belong to pseudo-vertices that are characteristic points of the boundary of the target set, which are responsible for the generation of branches of a singular set. The structure of scattering curves and the optimal trajectories starting from them, which fall in the neighborhood of the pseudo-vertex, is investigated. A characteristic feature of the case under study is revealed, consisting in the fact that one pseudo-vertex can generate two different branches of a singular set. The equation of the tangent to the smoothness points of the scattering curve is derived. A scheme is proposed for constructing a singular set, based on the construction of integral curves for first-order differential equations in normal form, the right-hand sides of which are determined by the geometry of the boundary of the target in neighborhoods of the pseudo-vertices. The results obtained are illustrated by the example of solving the control problem when the target set is a one-dimensional manifold. © 2020 Izvestiya Instituta Matematiki i Informatiki Udmurtskogo Gosudarstvennogo Universiteta.
