Exact Internal Controllability of Maxwell's Equations

Abstract.

In this paper we obtain two exact internal controllability results of Maxwell's equations in a general region by using multiplier techniques. The first one is exact controllability in a short time, in which we obtain the ``optimal" (observability) estimates when the location and the shape of the controller is fixed. What happens if we allow the controller to change? Under some conditions, we show that by doing that the system can be exactly controllable within any given time duration, which is our second exact controllability result.
