Abstract

In this paper we apply the notion of hierarchical control on a distributed system in which the state is governed by a parabolic equation. This notion assumes that we have two controls where one will be the Leader and the other, the Follower. The first control is supposed to bring the solution of the parabolic equation subjected to finite number of constraints to rest at time T while the second expresses that the state does not move too far from a given state. The results are achieved by means of an observability inequality of Carleman adapted to the constraint.
