- Subject:
- controllability, observability, and parabolic integrodifferential equation
- Language:
- English
- Description:
- In this paper, we prove the exact null controllability of certain diffusion system by rewriting it as an equivalent nonlinear parabolic integrodifferential equation with variable coefficients in a bounded interval of R with a distributed control acting on a subinterval. We first prove a global null controllability result of an associated linearized integrodifferential equation by establishing a suitable observability estimate for adjoint system with appropriate assumptions on the coefficients. Then this result is successfully used with some estimates for parabolic equation in Lk spaces together with classical fixed point theorem, to prove the null controllability of the nonlinear model.

- Subject:
- ordinary differential equations and observability
- Language:
- English
- Description:
- Observability of a general nonlinear system—given in terms of an ODE x˙ = f(x) and an output map y = c(x)—is defined as in linear system theory (i.e. if f(x) = Ax and c(x) = Cx). In contrast to standard treatment of the subject we present a criterion for observability which is not a generalization of a known linear test. It is obtained by evaluation of “approximate first integrals”. This concept is borrowed from nonlinear control theory where it appears under the label ''Dissipation Inequality'' and serves as a link with Hamilton-Jacobi theory.

4. On exact null controllability of Black-Scholes equation
- Creator:
- Sakthivel, Kumarasamy, Balachandran, Krishnan, Sowrirajan, Rangarajan, and Kim, Jeong-Hoon
- Format:
- bez média and svazek
- Type:
- model:article and TEXT
- Subject:
- Black-Scholes equation, volatility, controllability, observability, and Carleman estimates
- Language:
- English
- Description:
- In this paper we discuss the exact null controllability of linear as well as nonlinear Black-Scholes equation when both the stock volatility and risk-free interest rate influence the stock price but they are not known with certainty while the control is distributed over a subdomain. The proof of the linear problem relies on a Carleman estimate and observability inequality for its own dual problem and that of the nonlinear one relies on the infinite dimensional Kakutani fixed point theorem with L2 topology.
