We consider linear control problems for the heat equation of the form $\dot f (t) = -Hf (t) + \mathbf{1}_D u (t)$, $f (0) \in \ell_2 (X,m)$, where $H$ is the weighted Laplacian on a discrete graph $(X,b,m)$, and where $D \subseteq X$ is…

We derive in a direct and rather straightforward way the null controllability of a 2-D heat equation with boundary control. We use the so-called flatness approach, which consists in parameterizing the solution and the control by the…
In the paper, the problems of controllability and approximate controllability are studied for the control system $w_t=\Delta w$, $w_{x_1}(0,x_2,t)=u(t)\delta(x_2)$, $x_1>0$, $x_2\in\mathbb R$, $t\in(0,T)$, where $u\in L^\infty(0,T)$ is a…
We study the null controllability of three parabolic equations. The control is acting only on one of the three equations. The three equations are coupled by means of two cubic nonlinearities. The linearized control system around 0 is not…
