Majorization of C 0 -semigroups in ordered Banach spaces

Gerd Herzog, Peer Christian Kunstmann (2006)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

We give criteria for domination of strongly continuous semigroups in ordered Banach spaces that are not necessarily lattices, and thus obtain generalizations of certain results known in the lattice case. We give applications to semigroups generated by differential operators in function spaces which are not lattices.

Maximal regularity for second order non-autonomous Cauchy problems

Charles J. K. Batty, Ralph Chill, Sachi Srivastava (2008)

Studia Mathematica

We consider some non-autonomous second order Cauchy problems of the form ü + B(t)u̇ + A(t)u = f(t ∈ [0,T]), u(0) = u̇(0) = 0. We assume that the first order problem u̇ + B(t)u = f(t ∈ [0,T]), u(0) = 0, has L p -maximal regularity. Then we establish L p -maximal regularity of the second order problem in situations when the domains of B(t₁) and A(t₂) always coincide, or when A(t) = κB(t).

Measure solutions for semilinear evolution equations with polynomial growth and their optimal control

N.U. Ahmed (1997)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper we introduce a new concept of generalized solutions generalizing the notion of relaxed solutions recently introduced by Fattorini. We present some results on the question of existence of generalized or measure valued solutions for semilinear evolution equations on Banach spaces with polynomial nonlinearities. The results are illustrated by two examples one of which arises in nonlinear quantum mechanics. The results are then applied to some control problems.

Measure valued solutions for stochastic evolution equations on Hilbert space and their feedback control

N.U. Ahmed (2005)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper, we consider a class of semilinear stochastic evolution equations on Hilbert space driven by a stochastic vector measure. The nonlinear terms are assumed to be merely continuous and bounded on bounded sets. We prove the existence of measure valued solutions generalizing some earlier results of the author. As a corollary, an existence result of a measure solution for a forward Kolmogorov equation with unbounded operator valued coefficients is obtained. The main result is further extended...

Measure valued solutions for systems governed by neutral differential equations on Banach spaces and their optimal control

N.U. Ahmed (2013)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper we consider the question of existence of measure valued solutions for neutral differential equations on Banach spaces when there is no mild solutions. We prove the existence of measure solutions and their regularity properties. We consider also control problems of such systems and prove existence of optimal feedback controls for some interesting a-typical control problems.

Minimax control of nonlinear evolution equations

Nikolaos S. Papageorgiou (1995)

Commentationes Mathematicae Universitatis Carolinae

In this paper we study the minimax control of systems governed by a nonlinear evolution inclusion of the subdifferential type. Using some continuity and lower semicontinuity results for the solution map and the cost functional respectively, we are able to establish the existence of an optimal control. The abstract results are then applied to obstacle problems, semilinear systems with weakly varying coefficients (e.gȯscillating coefficients) and differential variational inequalities.
