A posteriori error estimates for a semidiscrete parabolic integrodifferential control on multimeshes (Q1925507): Difference between revisions

Summary: We extend the existing techniques to study semidiscrete adaptive finite element approximation schemes for a constrained optimal control problem governed by parabolic integrodifferential equations. The control problem involves time accumulation and the control constrain is given in an integral obstacle sense. We first prove the uniqueness and existence of the solution of this optimal control problem. We then derive the upper a posteriori error estimators for both the state and the control approximation, which are useful indicators in adaptive multimesh finite element approximation schemes.
