Abstract

In this paper, we consider a singular optimal control problem with cost function containing a small parameter ε. Using the boundary layer theory developped by Lions in [1], we give some estimates of the singular optimal control u ε in Sobolev space. On the basis of the interior estimate obtained in [4], we analyse the boundary singularity of u ε. According to the generalized Pohozaev identity[3], we obtain the estimation of \(\left\| {\frac{{\partial u_ \in }}{{\partial v}}} \right\|_{L^2 \left( \Gamma \right)}\).
