We consider an infinite strip $\Omega_L=(0,2\pi L)^{d-1}\times\mathbb{R}$, $d\geq 2$, $L>0$, and study the control problem of the heat equation on $\Omega_L$ with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions, and control set…
We make two remarks about the null-controllability of the heat equation with Dirichlet condition in unbounded domains. Firstly, we give a geometric necessary condition (for interior null-controllability in the Euclidean setting)which…
We study the boundary control problems for the wave, heat, and Schr\"odinger equations on a finite graph. We suppose that the graph is a tree (i.e., it does not contain cycles), and on each edge an equation is defined. The control is acting…
We survey recent results on the control problem for the heat equation on unbounded and large bounded domains. First we formulate new uncertainty relations, respectively spectral inequalities. Then we present an abstract control cost…
We prove new bounds on the control cost for the abstract heat equation, assuming a spectral inequality or uncertainty relation for spectral projectors. In particular, we specify quantitatively how upper bounds on the control cost depend on…
We derive in a straightforward way the null controllability of a 1-D heat equation with boundary control. We use the so-called {\em flatness approach}, which consists in parameterizing the solution and the control by the derivatives of a…
In this paper, we introduce a novel concept called the Graph Geometric Control Condition (GGCC). It turns out to be a simple, geometric rewriting of many of the frameworks in which the controllability of PDEs on graphs has been studied. We…
We consider the control problem for the generalized heat equation for a Schroedinger operator on a domain with a reflection symmetry with respect to a hyperplane. We show that if this system is null-controllable, then so is the system on…
We consider a linear nonlocal heat equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$ with Dirichlet boundary conditions. The non-locality is given by the presence of an integral kernel. We analyze the problem of controllability when…
In this paper we consider the heat equation with memory in a bounded region $\Omega \subset\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$, in the case that the propagation speed of the signal is infinite (i.e. the Colemann-Gurtin model). The memory kernel is of…
We prove that the approximate null-controllability with uniform cost of the hypoelliptic Ornstein-Uhlenbeck equations posed on $\mathbb R^n$ is characterized by an integral thickness geometric condition on the control supports. We also…
We consider linear control problems for the heat equation of the form $\dot f (t) = -Hf (t) + \mathbf{1}_D u (t)$, $f (0) \in \ell_2 (X,m)$, where $H$ is the weighted Laplacian on a discrete graph $(X,b,m)$, and where $D \subseteq X$ is…
In this paper we study the exact controllability problem for the wave equation on a finite metric graph with the Kirchhoff-Neumann matching conditions. Among all vertices and edges we choose certain active vertices and edges, and give a…
In this paper, we are concerned with the boundary controllability of heat equation with dynamic boundary conditions. More precisely, we prove that the equation is null controllable at any positive time by means of a boundary control…
It is well known that both the heat equation with Dirichlet or Neumann boundary conditions are null controlable as soon as the control acts in a non trivial domain (i.e. a set of positive measure, see [10, 11, 12, 1, 6]. In this article, we…
