The authors consider the following control problem for systems governed by the semilinear functional-differential equation of parabolic type with retarded argument: \[ \min {J(x,u) : (x,u) \in W }, \] where the cost functional is of integral form \(J(x,u) = \int_I g(t,x(t),u(t)) dt ,\) and the admissible (state-control) pair \((x,u)\) is the solution of the equation \[ \begin{cases} x'(t) = A_0(x(t)) + A_1x(t-h) + \int_{-h}^0a(s)A_2x(t+s)\;ds + f(t,x(t)) + Bu(t),\;t \in (0,T), \\ x(0) = {\phi}^0,\;x(s) = {\phi}(s),\;-h \leq s < 0 .\end{cases} \] Under appropriate assumptions on the evolution triple of Hilbert spaces \(V \subset H \subset V'\) and on the operators \(B, A_i\), \(i = 0,1,2\) (so that \(A_0\) generates an analytic semigroup in both \(H\) and \(V'\)) and on the nonlinear mapping \(f\) the authors obtain some existence and regularity results for the solutions of the above equation with time delay. Using these results and the direct method of calculus of variations they prove the existence of optimal control.
