The dynamical Lame system : regularity of solutions, boundary controllability and boundary data continuation
The boundary control problem for the dynamical Lame system (isotropic elasticity model) is considered. The continuity of the “input state” map in -norms is established. A structure of the reachable sets for arbitrary is studied. In general case, only the first component of the complete state may be controlled, an approximate controllability occurring in the subdomain filled with the shear (slow) waves. The controllability results are applied to the problem of the boundary data continuation....
The dynamical Lame system: regularity of solutions, boundary controllability and boundary data continuation
The boundary control problem for the dynamical Lame system (isotropic elasticity model) is considered. The continuity of the “input → state" map in L2-norms is established. A structure of the reachable sets for arbitrary T>0 is studied. In general case, only the first component of the complete state may be controlled, an approximate controllability occurring in the subdomain filled with the shear (slow) waves. The controllability results are applied to the problem of the boundary data continuation....

The relationship between the infinite eigenvalue assignment for singular systems and the solvability of polynomial matrix equations
Two related problems, namely the problem of the infinite eigenvalue assignment and that of the solvability of polynomial matrix equations are considered. Necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions to both the problems are established. The relationships between the problems are discussed and some applications from the field of the perfect observer design for singular linear systems are presented.
The squares of the Laplacian-Dirichlet eigenfunctions are generically linearly independent
The paper deals with the genericity of domain-dependent spectral properties of the Laplacian-Dirichlet operator. In particular we prove that, generically, the squares of the eigenfunctions form a free family. We also show that the spectrum is generically non-resonant. The results are obtained by applying global perturbations of the domains and exploiting analytic perturbation properties. The work is motivated by two applications: an existence result for the problem of maximizing the rate of...

Unicité et contrôle pour le système de Lamé
Dans cet article on étudie le problème de l’unicité locale pour le système de Lamé. On prouve qu’on a l’unicité de Cauchy par rapport à toute surface non caractéristique. Nous donnons également deux résultats de densité qui s’applique à la théorie du contrôle pour le système de Lamé.
Unicité et contrôle pour le système de Lamé
In this paper, we study the uniqueness problem for the Lamé system. We prove that we have the uniqueness property across any non characteristic surface. We also give two results which apply to the boundary controllability for the Lamé system.

Uniform controllability for the beam equation with vanishing structural damping
This paper is devoted to studying the effects of a vanishing structural damping on the controllability properties of the one dimensional linear beam equation. The vanishing term depends on a small parameter . We study the boundary controllability properties of this perturbed equation and the behavior of its boundary controls as goes to zero. It is shown that for any time sufficiently large but independent of and for each initial data in a suitable space there exists a uniformly bounded...
Uniform controllability of the linear one dimensional Schrödinger equation with vanishing viscosity
This article considers the linear 1-d Schrödinger equation in (0,π) perturbed by a vanishing viscosity term depending on a small parameter ε > 0. We study the boundary controllability properties of this perturbed equation and the behavior of its boundary controls vε as ε goes to zero. It is shown that, for any time T sufficiently large but independent of ε and for each initial datum in H−1(0,π), there exists a uniformly...

Uniform local null control of the Leray-α model
This paper deals with the distributed and boundary controllability of the so called Leray-α model. This is a regularized variant of the Navier−Stokes system (α is a small positive parameter) that can also be viewed as a model for turbulent flows. We prove that the Leray-α equations are locally null controllable, with controls bounded independently of α. We also prove that, if the initial data are sufficiently small, the controls converge as α → 0+ to a null control of the Navier−Stokes equations....
