State Constrained Control-Affine Parabolic Problems II: Second Order Sufficient Optimality Conditions

Second Order Sufficient Optimality Conditions for Parabolic Optimal Control Problems with Pointwise State Constraints

In this paper we study optimal control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations where the spatial dimension is two or three. Moreover, we consider pointwise constraints on the control and on the state. We formulate first order necessary and second order sufficient optimality conditions. We make use of recent results regarding elliptic regularity and apply the concept of maximal parab...

Second Order Sufficient Optimality Conditions for Some State-constrained Control Problems of Semilinear Elliptic Equations

This paper deals with a class of optimal control problems governed by elliptic equations with nonlinear boundary condition. The case of boundary control is studied. Pointwise constraints on the control and certain equality and set{constraints on the state are considered. Second order suucient conditions for local optimality of controls are established.

Sufficient Second-Order Optimality Conditions for a Parabolic Optimal Control Problem with Pointwise Control-State Constraints

An optimal control problem for a semilinear parabolic equation is investigated, where pointwise constraints are given on the control and the state. The state constraints are of mixed (bottleneck) type, where associated Lagrange multipliers can assumed to be bounded and measurable functions. Based on this property, a second-order sufficient optimality condition is established that considers stro...

Sufficient Second-Order Optimality Conditions for Semilinear Control Problems with Pointwise State Constraints

Abstract. Second-order sufficient optimality conditions are established for the optimal control of semilinear elliptic and parabolic equations with pointwise constraints on the control and the state. In contrast to former publications on this subject, the cone of critical directions is the smallest possible in the sense that the second-order sufficient conditions are the closest to the associat...
