Numerical blow-up time for a semilinear parabolic equation with nonlinear boundary conditions.
In the article the following optimal control problem is studied: to determine a certain coefficient in a quasilinear partial differential equation of parabolic type so that the solution of a boundary value problem for this equation would minimise a given integral functional. In addition to the design and analysis of a numerical method the paper contains the solution of the fundamental problems connected with the formulation of the problem in question (existence and uniqueness of the solution of...
This paper presents two observability inequalities for the heat equation over . In the first one, the observation is from a subset of positive measure in , while in the second, the observation is from a subset of positive surface measure on . It also proves the Lebeau-Robbiano spectral inequality when is a bounded Lipschitz and locally star-shaped domain. Some applications for the above-mentioned observability inequalities are provided.
