Properties of solutions to second order evolution control systems. II.
In this paper new methods for solving elliptic variational inequalities with weakly coercive operators are considered. The use of the iterative prox-regularization coupled with a successive discretization of the variational inequality by means of a finite element method ensures well-posedness of the auxiliary problems and strong convergence of their approximate solutions to a solution of the original problem. In particular, regularization on the kernel of the differential operator and regularization...
Motivated by digital communication channel, we consider the distributed output regulation problem for linear multi-agent systems with quantized state measurements. Quantizers take finitely many values and have an adjustable "zoom" parameter. Quantized distributed output regulation concerns designing distributed feedback by employing quantized technique for multi-agent systems such that all agents can track an active leader, and/or distributed disturbance rejection. With the solvability conditions...
Let W be a function from the real m×n-matrices to the real numbers. If W is quasiconvex in the sense of the calculus of variations, then we show that W can be approximated locally uniformly by quasiconvex polynomials.
We prove a general relaxation theorem for multidimensional control problems of Dieudonné-Rashevsky type with nonconvex integrands f(t, ξ, v) in presence of a convex control restriction. The relaxed problem, wherein the integrand f has been replaced by its lower semicontinuous quasiconvex envelope with respect to the gradient variable, possesses the same finite minimal value as the original problem, and admits a global minimizer. As an application, we provide existence theorems for the image registration...

We characterize generalized Young measures, the so-called DiPerna–Majda measures which are generated by sequences of gradients. In particular, we precisely describe these measures at the boundary of the domain in the case of the compactification of ℝm × n by the sphere. We show that this characterization is closely related to the notion of quasiconvexity at the boundary introduced by Ball and Marsden [J.M. Ball and J. Marsden, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 86 (1984) 251–277]. As a consequence we get...
We prove an existence result for equations of the form where the coefficients satisfy the usual ellipticity conditions and hypotheses weaker than the continuity with respect to the variable . Moreover, we give a counterexample which shows that the problem above may have no solution if the coefficients are supposed only Borel functions
