Bilinear control to trajectories of 1D degenerate parabolic equations in moving domains

Abstract

In this paper, we are concerned with local controllability properties of degenerate parabolic equations in bounded domains that evolve in time. More precisely, we deal with the exact controllability to a positive trajectory of a one-dimensional semilinear degenerate equation governed via the coefficient of the reaction term. We apply a well-known local inversion method combined with some appropriate specific estimates.
