Abstract: Our goal is to study controllability and observability properties of the 1D heat equation with internal control (or observation) set $omeg{a}_{varepsilon}=(x_0-varepsilon,x_0+varepsilon)$, in the limit $varepsilonightarrow0$, where $x_{0}in(0,1)$. It is known that depending on arithmetic properties of $x_0$, there may exist a minimal time $T_0$ of pointwise control at $x_0$ of the heat equation. Besides, for any $varepsilon$ fixed, the heat equation is controllable with control set $omeg{a}_{varepsilon}$ in any time $T>0$. We relate these two phenomena. We show that the observability constant on $omeg{a}_{v}arepsilon$ does not converge to $0$ as $varepsilonightarrow0$ at the same speed when $T>T_0$ (in which case it is comparable to $varepsilo{n}^{1/2}$) or $T<T_0$ (in which case it converges faster to $0$). We also describe the behavior of optimal $L^2$ null-controls on $omeg{a}_{varepsilon}$ in the limit $varepsilonightarrow0$.
