Feedback stabilization for the phase field equations

This paper deals with feedback stabilization for the system governed by the phase field equations of the following form: \[ \tau\phi=\xi^ 2\Delta\phi+\textstyle{{1\over 2}}(\phi-\phi^ 3)+2u,\quad\text{in }\Omega\times(0,+\infty),\tag{*} \] \[ u_ t+\textstyle{{\ell\over 2}}\phi_ t=K\Delta u+f,\quad\text{in }\Omega\times(0,+\infty) \] subject to boundary conditions and initial conditions of the following type: \[ \phi|_ \Gamma=\phi(x),\quad u|_ \Gamma=u(x),\tag{**} \] \[ \phi|_{t=0}=\phi_ 0(x),\quad u|_{t=0}=u_ 0(x). \] Here \(\Omega\) is a bounded domain in \(R^ 3\) \((n\leq 3)\) with smooth boundary \(\Gamma\). The function \(f\) in (*) represents the control variable. The phase field equations with \(f\equiv 0\) was proposed by \textit{G. Caginalp} [Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal. 92, 205-245 (1986; Zbl 0608.35080)]. In section 2, an explicit formula of the feedback control \(f\) is given in a heuristic way. In section 3 it is shown that the constructed control law gives the desired result satisfactorily i.e. for any given solution \((\bar\phi,\bar u)\) of the stationary problem and any initial data, a nonlinear feedback control is constructed so that the corresponding state of the system converges to \((\bar\phi,\bar u)\) as \(t\to\infty\). In the last section, an application of the main results is given.
