We study the identification of the nonlinearities A,(→)b and c appearing in the quasilinear parabolic equation y_t − div(A(y)∇y + (→)b(y)) + c(y) = u inΩ × (0,T), assuming that the solution of an associated boundary value problem is known at the terminal time, y(x,T), over a (probably small) subset of Ω, for each source term u. Our work can be divided into two parts. Firstly, the uniqueness of A,(→)b and c is proved under appropriate assumptions. Secondly, we consider a finite-dimensional...
