A symmetric interior penalty method for an elliptic distributed optimal control problem with pointwise state constraints (Q6112771): Difference between revisions

The paper is concerned with an elliptic distributed optimal control problem with pointwise state constraints on general polygonal domains. The problem is solved by a symmetric interior penalty method. The resulting discrete problems are quadratic programs with simple box constraints that can be solved efficiently by a primal-dual active set algorithm. Both theoretical analysis and corroborating numerical results are presented. The result is new and interesting.
