Abstract

We consider the heat equation on a bounded domain subject to an inhomogeneous forcing in terms of a rate-independent (hysteresis) operator and a control variable. The aim of the paper is to establish a functional analytical setting which allows to prove weak differentiability properties of the control-to-state mapping. Using results of [BK] and [B] on the weak differentiability of scalar rate-independent operators, we prove Bouligand and Newton differentiability in suitable Bochner spaces of the control-to-state mapping in a parabolic problem.
