Null controllability for semi-discrete stochastic semilinear parabolic equations
Abstract
The global null controllability of stochastic semilinear parabolic equations with globally Lipschitz nonlinearities has been addressed in recent literature. However, there are no results concerning their numerical approximation and the behavior of discrete controls when the discretization parameter goes to zero. This paper is intended to studying the null controllability for semi-discrete stochastic semilinear parabolic equations, where the spatial variable is discretized with finite difference scheme and the time is kept as a continuous variable. The proof is based on a new refined semi-discrete Carleman estimate and Banach fixed point method. The main novelty here is that the Carleman parameters and discretization parameter are made explicit and are then used in a Banach fixed point method.
