    We present randomized reconstruction approaches for optimal solutions to mixed-integer elliptic PDE control systems. Approximation properties and relations to sum-up rounding are derived using the cut norm. This enables us to dispose of space-filling curves required for sum-up rounding. Rates of almost sure convergence in the cut norm and the SUR norm in control space … Read more

    We propose a novel approach using shape derivatives to solve inverse optimization problems governed by Maxwell’s equations, focusing on identifying hidden geometric objects in a predefined domain. The target functional is of tracking type and determines the distance between the solution of a 3D time-dependent Maxwell problem and given measured data in an $L_2$-norm. Minimization … Read more
