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…
We analyze the control properties of heat equations with memory terms. We recall previous results showing that if the moving support of the control covers the whole domain where heat diffuses, the system is null controllable when the memory…
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…
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 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…
In this note we study the control problem for the heat equation on $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d\geq 1$, with control set $\omega\subset\mathbb{R}^d$. We provide a necessary and sufficient condition (called $(\gamma, a)$-\emph{thickness}) on $\omega$…
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…
