Abstract

This chapter is concerned with the Carleman estimates for the backward linear parabolic equations on smooth and bounded domains of \({\mathbb {R}}^d\) which implies observability that, as seen earlier, is the main tool to investigate the exact controllability of the forward parabolic controlled system.
