Control of the Cauchy System for an Elliptic Operator: The Controllability Method

In this paper, we are dealing with the ill-posed Cauchy problem for an elliptic operator. This is a follow-up to a previous paper on the same subject. Indeed, in an earlier publication, we introduced a regularization method, called the controllability method, which allowed us to propose, on the one...

description In this paper, we are dealing with the ill-posed Cauchy problem for an elliptic operator. This is a follow-up to a previous paper on the same subject. Indeed, in an earlier publication, we introduced a regularization method, called the controllability method, which allowed us to propose, on the one hand, a characterization of the existence of a regular solution to the ill-posed Cauchy problem. On the other hand, we have also succeeded in proposing, via a strong singular optimality system, a characterization of the optimal solution to the considered control problem, and this, without resorting to the Slater-type assumption, an assumption to which many analyses had to resort. On occasion, we have dealt with the control problem, with state boundary observation, the problem initially analyzed by J. L. Lions. The proposed point of view, consisting of the interpretation of the Cauchy system as a system of two inverse problems, then called naturally for conjectures in favor of which the present manuscript wants to constitute an argument. Indeed, we conjectured, in view of the first results obtained, that the proposed method could be improved from the point of view of the initial interpretation that we had made of the problem. In this sense, we analyze here two other variants (observation of the flow, then distributed observation) of the problem, the results of which confirm the intuition announced in the previous publication mentioned above. Those results, it seems to us, are of significant relevance in the analysis of the controllability method previously introduced.
