This book was released on 2019 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this dissertation, two research directions are presented. The first direction is on the study of the constrained Hamilton-Jacobi equation \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} u_t=H(Du)+R(x, I(t)) & \text{in }\R^n \times (0,\infty), \\ \sup_{\R^n} u(\cdot, t)=0 & \text{on }[0,\infty), \end{cases} \end{equation*} with initial conditions $I(0)=I_0>0$, $u(x,0)=u_0(x)$ on $\R^n$. Here $(u, I)$ is a pair of unknowns and a Hamiltonian $H$ and a reaction term $R$ are given. Moreover, $I(t)$ is an unknown constraint (Lagrange multiplier) that constrains the supremum of $u$ to be always zero. We construct a solution in the viscosity setting using the fixed point argument when the reaction term $R(x, I)$ is strictly decreasing in $I$. We also discuss both uniqueness and nonuniqueness. For uniqueness, a certain structural assumption on $R(x, I)$ is needed. We also provide an example with infinitely many solutions when the reaction term is not strictly decreasing in $I$. Furthermore, the uniqueness of a pair $(u, I)$ is achieved for one-dimensional case using the optimal control formula. The second direction is based on joint work with H. Tran and S. Tu is concerned with rate of convergence of viscosity solutions to state-constraint Hamilton-Jacobi equations defined in nested domains. In particular, we consider a sequence of balls $\{ B_k\}_{k \in \N}$ in $\R^n$ for the domain where a ball centered at the origin with radius $k$ is denoted by $B_k$. We obtain rate of convergence of $u_k$ which is a solution to the state-constraint problem in $B_k$, to $u$ which is a solution to the corresponding problem in $\R^n$ using the optimal control formula. The rate we obtain is indeed optimal.

Book excerpt: This book gives an extensive survey of many important topics in the theory of Hamilton–Jacobi equations with particular emphasis on modern approaches and viewpoints. Firstly, the basic well-posedness theory of viscosity solutions for first-order Hamilton–Jacobi equations is covered. Then, the homogenization theory, a very active research topic since the late 1980s but not covered in any standard textbook, is discussed in depth. Afterwards, dynamical properties of solutions, the Aubry–Mather theory, and weak Kolmogorov–Arnold–Moser (KAM) theory are studied. Both dynamical and PDE approaches are introduced to investigate these theories. Connections between homogenization, dynamical aspects, and the optimal rate of convergence in homogenization theory are given as well. The book is self-contained and is useful for a course or for references. It can also serve as a gentle introductory reference to the homogenization theory.

This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The major purpose of this book is to present the theoretical ideas and the analytical and numerical methods to enable the reader to understand and efficiently solve these important optimizational problems.The first half of this book should serve as the major component of a classical one or two semester course in the calculus of variations and optimal control theory. The second half of the book will describe the current research of the authors which is directed to solving these problems numerically. In particular, we present new reformulations of constrained problems which leads to unconstrained problems in the calculus of variations and new general, accurate and efficient numerical methods to solve the reformulated problems. We believe that these new methods will allow the reader to solve important problems.

Download or read book Control and Optimization with PDE Constraints written by Kristian Bredies and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-06-12 with total page 221 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many mathematical models of physical, biological and social systems involve partial differential equations (PDEs). The desire to understand and influence these systems naturally leads to considering problems of control and optimization. This book presents important topics in the areas of control of PDEs and of PDE-constrained optimization, covering the full spectrum from analysis to numerical realization and applications. Leading scientists address current topics such as non-smooth optimization, Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellmann equations, issues in optimization and control of stochastic partial differential equations, reduced-order models and domain decomposition, discretization error estimates for optimal control problems, and control of quantum-dynamical systems. These contributions originate from the “International Workshop on Control and Optimization of PDEs” in Mariatrost in October 2011. This book is an excellent resource for students and researchers in control or optimization of differential equations. Readers interested in theory or in numerical algorithms will find this book equally useful.
Download or read book Constrained Optimization and Optimal Control for Partial Differential Equations written by Günter Leugering and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2012-01-03 with total page 622 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This special volume focuses on optimization and control of processes governed by partial differential equations. The contributors are mostly participants of the DFG-priority program 1253: Optimization with PDE-constraints which is active since 2006. The book is organized in sections which cover almost the entire spectrum of modern research in this emerging field. Indeed, even though the field of optimal control and optimization for PDE-constrained problems has undergone a dramatic increase of interest during the last four decades, a full theory for nonlinear problems is still lacking. The contributions of this volume, some of which have the character of survey articles, therefore, aim at creating and developing further new ideas for optimization, control and corresponding numerical simulations of systems of possibly coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. The research conducted within this unique network of groups in more than fifteen German universities focuses on novel methods of optimization, control and identification for problems in infinite-dimensional spaces, shape and topology problems, model reduction and adaptivity, discretization concepts and important applications. Besides the theoretical interest, the most prominent question is about the effectiveness of model-based numerical optimization methods for PDEs versus a black-box approach that uses existing codes, often heuristic-based, for optimization.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The performance of a process -- for example, how an aircraft consumes fuel -- can be enhanced when the most effective controls and operating points for the process are determined. This holds true for many physical, economic, biomedical, manufacturing, and engineering processes whose behavior can often be influenced by altering certain parameters or controls to optimize some desired property or output.

Download or read book Optimal Control Theory written by L.D. Berkovitz and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-03-14 with total page 315 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an introduction to the mathematical theory of optimal control of processes governed by ordinary differential eq- tions. It is intended for students and professionals in mathematics and in areas of application who want a broad, yet relatively deep, concise and coherent introduction to the subject and to its relati- ship with applications. In order to accommodate a range of mathema- cal interests and backgrounds among readers, the material is arranged so that the more advanced mathematical sections can be omitted wi- out loss of continuity. For readers primarily interested in appli- tions a recommended minimum course consists of Chapter I, the sections of Chapters II, III, and IV so recommended in the introductory sec tions of those chapters, and all of Chapter V. The introductory sec tion of each chapter should further guide the individual reader toward material that is of interest to him. A reader who has had a good course in advanced calculus should be able to understand the defini tions and statements of the theorems and should be able to follow a substantial portion of the mathematical development. The entire book can be read by someone familiar with the basic aspects of Lebesque integration and functional analysis. For the reader who wishes to find out more about applications we recommend references [2], [13], [33], [35], and [50], of the Bibliography at the end of the book.
