The null controllability of the heat equation is known for decades [19,23,30]. The finite time stabilizability of the one dimensional heat equation was proved by Coron--Nguy\^en [13], while the same question for high dimensional spaces…

Positive $T$-martingales were developed as a general framework that extends the positive measure-valued martingales and are meant to model intermittent turbulence. We extend their scope by allowing the martingale to take complex values. We…

This work concentrates on a class of optimal control problems for semilinear parabolic equations subject to control constraint of the form $\|u(t)\|_{L^1(\Omega)} \le \gamma$ for $t \in (0,T)$. This limits the total control that can be…
