Riccati equations for nonsymmetric and nondissipative hyperbolic systems with \(L_ 2\)-boundary controls (Q1079535): Difference between revisions

Riccati equations arising in quadratic cost boundary control problems for hyperbolic systems in \(L^ 2\)-spaces are discussed. With the aid of suitable semigroup models and adequate regularity results for the solutions of the hyperbolic systems, we obtain the feedback synthesis of the optimal controls in terms of Riccati operators and we investigate the regularity of the optimal solutions and Riccati operators. Under minimal assumptions on the observation operator N, we show that the Riccati operators are the unique solutions to the corresponding Riccati integral equations (which are expressed by the semigroups of hyperbolic systems) and Riccati differential equations in a suitable class of self- adjoint operators.
