We consider two degenerate heat equations with a nonlocal space term, studying, in particular, their null controllability property. To this aim, we first consider the associated nonhomogeneous degenerate heat equations: we study their well…
We consider a system of two parabolic equations with a forcing term present in one equation and a cubic coupling term in the other one. We prove that the system is locally null controllable.
We give a new stability estimate for the problem of determining the time-dependent zero order coefficient in a parabolic equation from a partial parabolic Dirichlet-to-Neumann map. The novelty of our result is that, contrary to the previous…
