Asymptotic expansion for the solution of a penalized control constrained semilinear elliptic problems

In this work we consider the optimal control problem of a semilinear elliptic PDE with a Dirichlet boundary condition, where the control variable is distributed over the domain and is constrained to be nonnegative. The approach is to consider an associated parametrized family of penalized problems, whose solutions define a central path converging to the … Read more
