Data assimilation (DA) is widely used to combine physical knowledge and observations. It is nowadays commonly used in geosciences to perform parametric calibration. In a context of climate change, old calibrations can not necessarily be…

We study linear parabolic initial-value problems in a space-time variational formulation based on fractional calculus. This formulation uses "time derivatives of order one half" on the bi-infinite time axis. We show that for linear,…

We prove weak duality between two recent convex relaxation methods for bounding the optimal value of a constrained variational problem in which the objective is an integral functional. The first approach, proposed by Valmorbida et al. (IEEE…

This work puts forward a form finding problem of designing a least-volume vault that is a surface structure spanning over a plane region, which via pure compression transfers a vertically tracking load to the supporting boundary. Through a…

We consider optimal control problems for partial differential equations where the controls take binary values but vary over the time horizon, they can thus be seen as dynamic switches. The switching patterns may be subject to combinatorial…

In this paper we consider an optimal control problem governed by a semilinear heat equation with bilinear control-state terms and subject to control and state constraints. The state constraints are of integral type, the integral being with…

We consider constrained partial differential equations of hyperbolic type with a small parameter $\varepsilon>0$, which turn parabolic in the limit case, i.e., for $\varepsilon=0$. The well-posedness of the resulting systems is discussed…

Differential stability of convex discrete optimal control problems in Banach spaces is studied in this paper. By using some recent results of An and Yen [Appl. Anal. 94, 108--128 (2015)] on differential stability of parametric convex…

The shallow water equations (SWE) are a widely used model for the propagation of surface waves on the oceans. We consider the problem of optimally determining the initial conditions for the one-dimensional SWE in an unbounded domain from a…

This paper provides necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for abstract constrained mathematical programming problems in locally convex spaces under new qualification conditions. Our approach exploits the geometrical properties of…

In this paper, we consider non-diffusive variational problems with mixed boundary conditions and (distributional and weak) gradient constraints. The upper bound in the constraint is either a function or a Borel measure, leading to the state…

In the prototypical setting of non-Euclidean geometry, the 2-dimensional Real Hyperbolic space $\mathbb{H}^2$, we consider the Carleson's problem for the Schr\"odinger equation and improve the best known result until now by proving that the…

We present the mathematical framework of a Domain Decomposition (DD) aproach based on Parallel-in-Time methods (PinT-based approach) for solving the 4D-Var Data Assimilation (DA) model. The main outcome of the proposed DD PinT-based…

In a wide class of the so called Obstacle Problems of parabolic type it is shown how to improve the optimal regularity of the solution and as a consequence how to obtain space-time regularity of the corresponding free boundary.

In this paper we prove higher regularity for 2m-th order parabolic equations with general boundary conditions. This is a kind of maximal L_p-L_q regularity with differentiability, i.e. the main theorem is isomorphism between the solution…

This article concerns a class of time-optimal state constrained control problems with dynamics defined by an ordinary differential equation involving a three-dimensional steady flow vector field. The problem is solved via an indirect method…

In this paper, we consider a class of optimal control problems governed by 1D parabolic state-systems of KWC types with dynamic boundary conditions. The state-systems are based on a phase-field model of grain boundary motion, proposed in…

State-dependent parameter identification, where unknown model parameters depend on one or more state variables in partial differential equations (PDEs) or coupled PDE systems, is fundamental to a wide range of problems in physics,…

This paper is concerned with an optimal control problem subject to the $H^1$-critical defocusing semilinear wave equation on a smooth and bounded domain in three spatial dimensions. Due to the criticality of the nonlinearity in the wave…

We study the optimal value function for control problems on Banach spaces that involve both continuous and discrete control decisions. For problems involving semilinear dynamics subject to mixed control inequality constraints, one can show…
