Optimal control problems in differential equations concern the formulation and solution of problems where the objective is to determine a control function that optimises a given performance criterion, ...

SIAM Journal on Numerical Analysis, Vol. 54, No. 2 (2016), pp. 1229-1262 (34 pages) This paper is devoted to the study of finite element approximations to parabolic optimal control problems with ...

"We are surrounded by a huge number of systems - biological, technical, economic, which we can influence, which we can control. The task is to do it optimally, for example, reaching the desired point ...

Researchers adapt model predictive control from engineering to epidemic response, balancing health and economic costs under ...

In this paper, we discuss the mixed discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element approximation to linear parabolic optimal control problems. For the state variables and the co-state variables, the ...
