Optimal control problem for systems of conservation laws, with geometric parameter, and application to the Shallow-Water Equations

Sébastien Court, Karl Kunisch, Laurent Pfeiffer

A theoretical framework and numerical techniques to solve optimal control problems with a spatial trace term in the terminal cost and governed by regularized nonlinear hyperbolic c…

Analysis of optimal control problems of semilinear elliptic equations by BV-functions

Eduardo Casas, Karl Kunisch

Optimal control problems for semilinear elliptic equations with control costs in the space of bounded variations are analysed. BV-based optimal controls favor piecewise constant, a…

Numerical Study of Polynomial Feedback Laws for a Bilinear Control Problem

Tobias Breiten, Karl Kunisch, Laurent Pfeiffer

An infinite-dimensional bilinear optimal control problem with infinite-time horizon is considered. The associated value function can be expanded in a Taylor series around the equil…

Control Strategies for the Fokker-Planck Equation

Tobias Breiten, Karl Kunisch, Laurent Pfeiffer

Using a projection-based decoupling of the Fokker-Planck equation, control strategies that allow to speed up the convergence to the stationary distribution are investigated. By mea…

Taylor Expansions of the Value Function Associated with a Bilinear Optimal Control Problem

Tobias Breiten, Karl Kunisch, Laurent Pfeiffer

A general bilinear optimal control problem subject to an infinite-dimensional state equation is considered. Polynomial approximations of the associated value function are derived a…

A convex analysis approach to optimal controls with switching structure for partial differential equations

Christian Clason, Kazufumi Ito, Karl Kunisch

Optimal control problems involving hybrid binary-continuous control costs are challenging due to their lack of convexity and weak lower semicontinuity. Replacing such costs with th…
