چکیده
An optimal control problem for semilinear parabolic partial differential equations is considered. The control variable appears in the leading term of the equation. Necessary conditions for optimal controls are established by the method of homogenizing spike variation. Results for problems with state constraints are also stated.

Hamiltonian Pontryagin’s Principles for Control Problems Governed by Semilinear Parabolic Equations
In this paper we study optimal control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations. We obtain necessary optimality conditions in the form of an exact Pontryagin’s minimum principle for distributed and boundary controls (which can be unbounded) and bounded initial controls. These optimality conditions are obtained thanks to new regularity results for linear and nonlinear parabolic equati...
متن کاملPontryagin's Principle for State-constrained Boundary Control Problems of Semilinear Parabolic Equations
This paper deals with state-constrained optimal control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations. We establish a minimum principle of Pontryagin's type. To deal with the state constraints, we introduce a penalty problem by using Ekeland's principle. The key tool for the proof is the use of a special kind of spike perturbations distributed in the domain where the controls are de ned. ...
متن کاملSufficient Second-Order Optimality Conditions for Semilinear Control Problems with Pointwise State Constraints
Abstract. Second-order sufficient optimality conditions are established for the optimal control of semilinear elliptic and parabolic equations with pointwise constraints on the control and the state. In contrast to former publications on this subject, the cone of critical directions is the smallest possible in the sense that the second-order sufficient conditions are the closest to the associat...
متن کاملHybrid Optimal Control Problems for a Class of Semilinear Parabolic Equations
A class of optimal control problems of hybrid nature governed by semilinear parabolic equations is considered. These problems involve the optimization of switching times at which the dynamics, the integral cost, and the bounds on the control may change. Firstand secondorder optimality conditions are derived. The analysis is based on a reformulation involving a judiciously chosen transformation ...
متن کاملControl and Cybernetics
Abstract: The paper deals with optimal control problems for semilinear elliptic and parabolic PDEs subject to pointwise state constraints. The main issue is that the controls are taken from a restricted control space. In the parabolic case, they are R -vectorvalued functions of time, while they are vectors of R in elliptic problems. Under natural assumptions, firstand second-order sufficient op...
