Optimal Control for Systems Described by Semi-linear Parabolic Equations
Authors: , , ,
Abstract: We study the well-posedness of an optimal control problem described by semi-linear parabolic equation. The control functions are represented by the coefficients λ(u, v) and β(u, v) which appear in the nonlinear part of the state problem and inside the source strength, respectively. These coefficients depend on the control function v. Then, we obtain some necessary optimality conditions for this problem.
