Finite-Horizon Parameterizing Manifolds, and Applications to Suboptimal Control of Nonlinear Parabolic PDEs

TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new approach for the design of low-dimensional suboptimal controllers to optimal control problems of nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs) of parabolic type, where a PM provides an approximate parameterization of the high modes by the controlled low ones so that the unexplained high-mode energy is reduced.

Carleman estimates and null controllability for a degenerate population model

TL;DR: In this paper, a degenerate model describing the dynamics of a population depending on time, on age and on space is presented. But the degeneracy can occur at the boundary or in the interior of the space domain and the authors focus on null controllability problem.

Fully spectral collocation method for nonlinear parabolic partial integro-differential equations

TL;DR: In this paper, the spectral approximation of nonlinear parabolic Volterra and Fredholm partial integro-differential equations is studied using the spectral method for the purpose of discretizing the time variable by finite difference schemes.

Poincaré inequalities for Sobolev spaces with matrix-valued weights and applications to degenerate partial differential equations

TL;DR: For bounded domains Ω, this article showed that the Lp-norm of a regular function with compact support is controlled by weighted Lpnorms of its gradient, where the weight belongs to a class of symmetric non-negative definite matrix-valued functions.
