Abstract
In this paper we consider a one-dimensional nonlinear boundary control problem occuring in heat conduction with a boundary condition governed by the Stefan-Boltzmann law. For L∞-inputs we prove the existence and uniqueness of non-negative solutions. Furthermore we show for a class of cost functionals that there exist optimal controls. We also give necessary conditions for optimal controls in form of a certain type of bang-bang-principle. In dieser Arbeit betrachten wir ein eindimensionales nichtlineares Rand-Steuerungsproblem, das in der Warmeleitung mit einer Randbedingung nach dem Stefan-Boltzmann-Gesetz auftritt. Wir beweisen die Existenz und Eindeutigkeit stetiger nicht-negativer Losungen fur L∞-Eingaben. Weiterhin zeigen wir fur eine Klasse von Zielfunktionalen, das optimale Steuerungen existieren. Wir geben auch notwendige Bedingungen fur optimale Steuerungen an in Form eines speziellen Bang-Bang-Prinzips.

Second-order sufficient optimality conditions for a class of nonlinear parabolic boundary control problems

TL;DR: In this article, sufficient second-order optimality conditions are established for parabolic boundary control problems with nonlinear boundary condition and constraints on the control and the state, by means of a semigroup approach and a two-norm technique.

Superlinear Convergence of Affine-Scaling Interior-Point Newton Methods for Infinite-Dimensional Nonlinear Problems with Pointwise Bounds

TL;DR: A superlinearly convergent affine-scaling interior-point Newton method for infinite-dimensional problems with pointwise bounds in Lp-space is developed and it is demonstrated in an example that a stepsize rule to obtain an interior iterate may require very small stepsizes even arbitrarily close to a nondegenerate solution.

Some problems in the theory of optimal control

TL;DR: In this article, the authors consider the problem of optimal control of a rod when the temperature of the external medium can be controlled within definite limits, i.e., the temperature must be as close to the given temperature as possible.
