In this paper, we analyze optimal control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations. Box constraints for the controls are imposed and the cost functional involves the state and possibly a sparsity-promoting term, but not a…

This paper deals with second-order optimality conditions for a quasilinear elliptic control problem with a nonlinear coefficient in the principal part that is countably $PC^2$ (continuous and $C^2$ apart from countably many points). We…

We construct, for the first time, various types of specific non-special finite $p$-groups having abelian automorphism group. More specifically, we construct groups $G$ with abelian automorphism group such that $\gamma_2(G) < \mathrm{Z}(G) <…

We study the nonlocal regularization for the non-abelian gauge theories for an arbitrary value of the gauge parameter (\xi). We show that the procedure for the nonlocalization of field theories established earlier by the original authors,…

This paper is the first part of our series work to establish pointwise second-order necessary conditions for stochastic optimal controls. In this part, both drift and diffusion terms may contain the control variable but the control region…

In a Hamiltonian system with first class constraints observables can be defined as elements of a quotient Poisson bracket algebra. In the gauge fixing method observables form a quotient Dirac bracket algebra. We show that these two algebras…

We study a semilinear elliptic equation with a pure power nonlinearity with exponent $p>1$, and provide sufficient conditions for the existence of positive solutions. These conditions involve expected exit times from the domain, $D$, where…

We study well-posedness of a first-order-in-time model for nonlinear acoustics with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions in fractional Sobolev spaces. The analysis proceeds by first establishing well-posedness of an abstract parabolic-type…

We consider the null-plane dynamics for a reduced-order version of the higher-derivatives Bopp-Podoslky generalized electrodynamics model. By introducing an auxiliary vector field, we achieve a simpler equivalent version with lower…

Let $F(y):=\displaystyle\int_t^TL(s, y(s), y'(s))\,ds$ be a positive functional (the "energy"), unnecessarily autonomous, defined on the space of Sobolev functions $W^{1,p}([t,T]; \mathbb R^n)$ ($p\ge 1$). We consider the problem of…

We prove an adiabatic theorem for the non-autonomous Gross-Pitaevskii equation in the case of a weak trap. More precisely, we assume that the external potential decays suitably at infinity and admits exactly one bound state.

We obtain higher order necessary conditions for a minimum of a Mayer optimal control problem connected with a nonlinear, control-affine system, where the controls range on an m-dimensional Euclidean space. Since the allowed velocities are…
