Abstract: In this paper, we are concerned with the internal control of a class of one-dimensional nonlinear parabolic systems with nonlocal and weakly degenerate diffusion coefficients. Our main theorem establishes a local null controllability result with only one internal control for a system of two equations. The proof, based on the ideias developed by Fursikov and Imanivilov, is obtained from the global null controllability of the linearized system provided by extit{Lyusternik's Inverse Mapping Theorem}. This work extends the results previously treated by the authors for just one equation. For the system, the main issue is to obtain similar results with just one internal control, which requires a new Carleman estimate with the local term just depending on one of the state function.


The paper is devoted to the problem of internal control of a class of one-dimensional nonlinear parabolic systems with nonlocal and weakly degenerate diffusion coefficients. The main result of the paper is given in Theorem 1.1. that establishes a local null controllability statement with one internal control for a system of two equations. The first two sections of the paper have introductory and preliminary character. In the next section, a Carleman-type inequality to solutions of the adjoint linearized problem is proved. This inequality allows to obtain an observability inequality. The next, 4th section, provides an analysis of the global null controllability of the linearized system. In the 5th section, the main result of the paper is proved. In the final, 6th section, the authors present some comments and remarks. The paper has also three appendices with some auxiliary matter.
