ERROR ESTIMATES FOR THE FINITE ELEMENT APPROXIMATION OF A SEMILINEAR ELLIPTIC CONTROL PROBLEM WITH STATE CONSTRAINTS AND FINITE DIMENSIONAL CONTROL SPACE

摘要

The finite element approximation of optimal control problems for semilinear elliptic partial differential equation is considered, where the control belongs to a finite-dimensional set and state constraints are given in finitely many points of the domain. Under the standard linear independency condition on the active gradients and a strong second-order sufficient optimality condition, optimal error estimates are derived for locally optimal controls.
