This work addresses control problems governed by a semilinear evolution equation with singular memory kernel $\kappa(t)=\alpha e^{-\beta t}\frac{t^{\nu-1}}{\Gamma(\nu)}$, where $\alpha>0, \beta\ge 0$, and $0<\nu<1$. We examine the existence…
We study the null controllability of three parabolic equations. The control is acting only on one of the three equations. The three equations are coupled by means of two cubic nonlinearities. The linearized control system around 0 is not…
