On the optimal control of coefficients in elliptic problems. Application to the optimization of the head slider

Ionel Ciuperca, Mohamed El Alaoui Talibi, Mohammed Jai (2005)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

We consider an optimal control problem for a class of non-linear elliptic equations. A result of existence and uniqueness of the state equation is proven under weaker hypotheses than in the literature. We also prove the existence of an optimal control. Applications to some lubrication problems and numerical results are given.

On the Relation between the S-matrix and the Spectrum of the Interior Laplacian

A. G. Ramm (2009)

Bulletin of the Polish Academy of Sciences. Mathematics

The main results of this paper are: 1) a proof that a necessary condition for 1 to be an eigenvalue of the S-matrix is real analyticity of the boundary of the obstacle, 2) a short proof that if 1 is an eigenvalue of the S-matrix, then k² is an eigenvalue of the Laplacian of the interior problem, and that in this case there exists a solution to the interior Dirichlet problem for the Laplacian, which admits an analytic continuation to the whole space ℝ³ as an entire function.

On the solution of some non-local problems

F. Criado, Jr. Criado, F., N. Odishelidze (2004)

Czechoslovak Mathematical Journal

This paper deals with two types of non-local problems for the Poisson equation in the disc. The first of them deals with the situation when the function value on the circle is given as a combination of unknown function values in the disc. The other type deals with the situation when a combination of the value of the function and its derivative by radius on the circle are given as a combination of unknown function values in the disc. The existence and uniqueness of the classical solution of these...
