We consider the dynamical behavior of fractional stochastic integro-differential equations with additive noise on unbounded domains. The existence and uniqueness of tempered random attractors for the equation in
In this work, we consider the two dimensional tidal dynamics equations in a bounded domain and address some optimal control problems like total energy minimization, minimization of dissipation of energy of the flow, etc. We also examine an another interesting control problem which is similar to that of the data assimilation problems in meteorology of obtaining unknown initial data, when the system under consideration is the tidal dynamics, using optimal control techniques. For these cases, different distributed optimal control problems are formulated as the minimization of suitable cost functionals subject to the controlled two dimensional tidal dynamics system. The existence of an optimal control as well as the first order necessary conditions of optimality for such systems are established and the optimal control is characterized via the adjoint variable. We also establish the uniqueness of optimal control in small time interval.
The paradigm of discounting future costs is a common feature of economic applications of optimal control. In this paper, we provide several results for such discounted optimal control aimed at replicating the now well-known results in the standard, undiscounted, setting whereby (strict) dissipativity, turnpike properties, and near-optimality of closed-loop systems using model predictive control are essentially equivalent. To that end, we introduce a notion of discounted strict dissipativity and show that this implies various properties including the existence of available storage functions, required supply functions, and robustness of optimal equilibria. Additionally, for discount factors sufficiently close to one we demonstrate that strict dissipativity implies discounted strict dissipativity and that optimally controlled systems, derived from a discounted cost function, yield practically asymptotically stable equilibria. Several examples are provided throughout.
This paper is concerned with a Stackelberg game of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) with partial information, where the information of the follower is a sub-
We prove a stochastic maximum principle for a control problem where the state equation is delayed both in the state and in the control, and both the running and the final cost functionals may depend on the past trajectories. The adjoint equation turns out to be a new form of linear anticipated backward stochastic differential equations (ABSDEs in the following), and we prove a direct formula to solve these equations.
In this paper, we investigate the approximate controllability problems of certain Sobolev type differential equations. Here, we obtain sufficient conditions for the approximate controllability of a semilinear Sobolev type evolution system in Banach spaces. In order to establish the approximate controllability results of such a system, we have employed the resolvent operator condition and Schauder's fixed point theorem. Finally, we discuss a concrete example to illustrate the efficiency of the results obtained.
We investigate a multidimensional transmission problem between viscoelastic system with localized Kelvin-Voigt damping and purely elastic system under different types of geometric conditions. The Kelvin-Voigt damping is localized via non smooth coefficient in a suitable subdomain. It was shown that the discontinuity of the material coefficient along the interface elastic/viscoelastic can't assure an exponential stability of the total system. So, it is natural to hope for a polynomial stability result under certain geometric conditions on the damping region. For this aim, using frequency domain approach combined with a new multiplier technic, we will establish a polynomial energy decay estimate of type
In the present contribution we study a viscous Cahn–Hilliard system where a further leading term in the expression for the chemical potential
Motivated by the stability and performance analysis of model predictive control schemes, we investigate strict dissipativity for a class of optimal control problems involving probability density functions. The dynamics are governed by a Fokker-Planck partial differential equation. However, for the particular classes under investigation involving linear dynamics, linear feedback laws, and Gaussian probability density functions, we are able to significantly simplify these dynamics. This enables us to perform an in-depth analysis of strict dissipativity for different cost functions.
In this article we consider the inverse problem of determining the diffusion coefficient of the heat operator in an unbounded guide using a finite number of localized observations. For this problem, we prove a stability estimate in any finite portion of the guide using an adapted Carleman inequality. The measurements are located on the boundary of a larger finite portion of the guide. A special care is required to avoid measurements on the cross-section boundaries which are inside the actual guide. This stability estimate uses a technical positivity assumption. Using arguments from control theory, we manage to remove this assumption for the inverse problem with a given non homogeneous boundary condition.
