We study the null-controllability properties of a one-dimensional wave equation with memory associated with the fractional Laplace operator. The goal is not only to drive the displacement and the velocity to rest at some time-instant but…
In a separable Hilbert space $X$, we study the controlled evolution equation \begin{equation*} u'(t)+Au(t)+p(t)Bu(t)=0, \end{equation*} where $A\geq-\sigma I$ ($\sigma\geq0$) is a self-adjoint linear operator, $B$ is a bounded linear…
We consider the one-dimensional degenerate parabolic equation $$ u_t - (x^\alpha u_x)_x =0 \qquad x\in(0,1),\ t \in (0,T) ,$$ controlled by a boundary force acting at the degeneracy point $x=0$. First we study the reachable targets at some…

We consider heat operators on a convex domain $\Omega$, with a critically singular potential that diverges as the inverse square of the distance to the boundary of $\Omega$. We establish a general boundary controllability result for such…
We refer by threshold Ornstein-Uhlenbeck to a continuous-time threshold autoregressive process. It follows the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck dynamics when above or below a fixed level, yet at this level (threshold) its coefficients can be…
