Abstract
In this paper, we consider an optimal control problem for a system described by a parabolic linear partial differential equation with the Neumann boundary condition. We impose some constraints on the control. The performance functional has the integral form. The control time T is fixed. The initial condition is not given by a known function but belongs to a certain set (incomplete information about the initial state). To obtain optimality conditions for the Neumann problem, a generalization of the Dubovitskii–Milyutin theorem was applied. The problem formulated in this paper describes the process of optimal heating for which we do not have exact information about the initial temperature of the heating object. We also present an example in which admissible controls and one of the initial conditions are given by means of the norm constraints.
