Exact penalization of pointwise constraints for optimal control problems

摘要

In this paper we consider a control problem governed by a semilinear elliptic equation with pointwise control and state constraints. We analyze the existence of an exact penalization of the state constraints. In particular, we prove that the first and second order optimality conditions imply the existence of such a penalization. Finally, we prove some extra regularity of the strict local minima of the control problem, assuming the existence of an exact penalization for them.
