Constrained linear-quadratic optimization problems with parameter-dependent entries (Q6051184)

The author's abstract: The paper provides strong convergence of solutions to a sequence of linear-quadratic optimization problems defined in an abstract functional framework. Each problem is accompanied by the constraint of reaching a given target within a prescribed precision. We show that the problems are well-posed and characterize their solutions. The main result provides the conditions under which these solutions converge to the minimizer of the limit problem. The generality of the result allows its application to a wide range of problems: elliptic, parabolic, control ones, etc. The examples presented in the paper consider optimal approximate controls of the heat equation and optimal approximate solutions to the Poisson equation.
