Abstract

This paper studies a kind of minimal norm optimal control problem for a semilinear heat equation with impulse controls; it consists in finding an impulse control, which has the minimal norm among all controls steering solutions of the controlled system to a given target from an initial state in a fixed time interval. We will study the existence of optimal controls to this problem. Then, we will establish a nontrivial Pontryagin’s maximum principle of this problem.
