In this note we discuss the difficulty of verifying $\mathrm{L}^p$-admissibility for $p\neq 2$ -- that even manifests in the presence of a self-adjoint semigroup generator on a Hilbert space -- and survey tests for…

We consider linear systems on a separable Hilbert space $H$, which are null controllable at some time $T_0>0$ under the action of a point or boundary control. Parabolic and hyperbolic control systems usually studied in applications are…

For $\alpha\in (0,2)$ we study the null controllability of the parabolic operator $$Pu= u_t - (\vert x \vert ^\alpha u_x)_x\qquad (1<x<1),$$ which degenerates at the interior point $x=0$, for locally distributed controls acting only one…

We study several controllability properties for some semilinear parabolic PDE with a quadratic gradient term. For internal distributed controls, it is shown that the system is approximately and null controllable. The proof relies on the…
