Abstract: We study (approximate) null-controllability of parabolic equations in Lp(mathbbRd) and provide explicit bounds on the control cost. In particular we consider systems of the form dotx(t)=−Apx(t)+mathbf1Eu(t), x(0)=x0inLp(mathbbRd), with interior control on a so-called thick set EsubsetmathbbRd, where pin[1,infty), and where A is an elliptic operator of order minmathbbN in Lp(mathbbRd). We prove null-controllability of this system via duality and a sufficient condition for observability. This condition is given by an uncertainty principle and a dissipation estimate. Our result unifies and generalizes earlier results obtained in the context of Hilbert and Banach spaces. In particular, our result applies to the case p=1.
