Recent advances in the analysis of pointwise state-constrained elliptic optimal control problems

Eduardo Casas, Fredi Tröltzsch (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Optimal control problems for semilinear elliptic equations with control constraints and pointwise state constraints are studied. Several theoretical results are derived, which are necessary to carry out a numerical analysis for this class of control problems. In particular, sufficient second-order optimality conditions, some new regularity results on optimal controls and a sufficient condition for the uniqueness of the Lagrange multiplier associated with the state constraints are presented.

Reliable solutions of problems in the deformation theory of plasticity with respect to uncertain material function

Ivan Hlaváček (1996)

Applications of Mathematics

Maximization problems are formulated for a class of quasistatic problems in the deformation theory of plasticity with respect to an uncertainty in the material function. Approximate problems are introduced on the basis of cubic Hermite splines and finite elements. The solvability of both continuous and approximate problems is proved and some convergence analysis presented.

Remarks on positive solutions to a semilinear Neumann problem

Anna Maria Candela, Monica Lazzo (1994)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

In this paper we study the influence of the domain topology on the multiplicity of solutions to a semilinear Neumann problem. In particular, we show that the number of positive solutions is stable under small perturbations of the domain.
