Minimal time control of exact synchronization for parabolic systems

Optimization and Control 2018-03-02 v1

Abstract

This paper studies a kind of minimal time control problems related to the exact synchronization for a controlled linear system of parabolic equations. Each problem depends on two parameters: the bound of controls and the initial state. The purpose of such a problem is to find a control (from a constraint set) synchronizing components of the corresponding solution vector for the controlled system in the shortest time. In this paper, we build up a necessary and sufficient condition for the optimal time and the optimal control; we also obtain how the existence of optimal controls depends on the above mentioned two parameters.
