A FEM for an Optimal Control Problem of Fractional Powers of Elliptic Operators
نویسندگان
چکیده
We study solution techniques for a linear-quadratic optimal control problem involving fractional powers of elliptic operators. These fractional operators can be realized as the Dirichlet-toNeumann map for a nonuniformly elliptic problem. Thus, we consider an equivalent formulation with a nonuniformly elliptic operator as state equation. The rapid decay of the solution to this problem suggests a truncation that is suitable for numerical approximation. We discretize the proposed truncated state equation using first degree tensor product finite elements on anisotropic meshes. For the control problem we analyze two approaches: one that is semi-discrete based on the so-called variational approach, where the control is not discretized, and the other one is fully discrete via the discretization of the control by piecewise constant functions. For both approaches, we derive a priori error estimates with respect to the degrees of freedom. Numerical experiments validate the derived error estimates and reveal a competitive performance of anisotropic over quasi-uniform refinement.
