Modified quasi-reversibility method for final value problems in Banach spaces (Q2470473)

This paper presents a new version of the quasi-reversibility method for regularizing linear ill-posed problems. Its focus is on the stable approximate solution of final value problems \[ u^\prime(t)+Au(t)=0\quad (0 \leq t <T), \qquad u(T)=x, \] where \(A\) is an unbounded linear operator such that \(-A\) is the generator of the uniformly bounded analytic semigroup on a Banach space. New versions of regularizing operators \(A_\alpha\) with regularization parameter \(\alpha>0\) are discussed when \[ v_\alpha(t)^\prime+A_\alpha v_\alpha(t)=0 \quad (0 \leq t <T), \qquad v_\alpha(T)=x, \] characterizes the stabilized neighbouring problem. Convergence assertions for \(\alpha \to 0\) are made in the case of noise-free data. The functional calculus of de~Laubenfels is exploited as well as recent results by \textit{N.\,Boussetila} and \textit{F.\,Rebbani} [Georgian Math.\ J.\ 14, No.\,4, 627--642 (2007; Zbl 1132.35405)] for Hilbert spaces which are extended in some respects to the Banach space setting.
