The optimal control strategy is designed to inhibit tumor growth while minimizing side effects. We establish the well-posedness of the problem and prove the existence of an optimal control. In order to characterize this optimal control, the optimality system is derived, and a necessary condition is obtained. Numerical simulations are conducted to illustrate our theoretical findings and assess the impact of the optimal control strategy on tumor growth dynamics. Furthermore, we extend the model to include spatial dependency in the control variable and perform additional simulations to explore this more complex scenario.","PeriodicalId":48833,"journal":{"name":"Evolution Equations and Control Theory","volume":"14 6","pages":"1534-1564"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.aimsciences.org/data/article/export-pdf?id=6846b27db924fa00d9d4bb9e","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147382154","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The principal model we study was proposed by O. A. Ladyzhenskaya, although the techniques we develop here apply to other fluids having a shear-dependent viscosity. Taking advantage of the Pontryagin Minimum Principle, we utilize a bootstrapping argument to prove that sufficiently smooth controls to the forced linearized Stokes problem exist, as long as the initial data in turn has enough regularity. From there, we extend the result to the nonlinear problem. As a byproduct, we devise a quasi-Newton algorithm to compute the states and a control, which we prove to converge in an appropriate sense. We finish the work with some numerical experiments.","PeriodicalId":48833,"journal":{"name":"Evolution Equations and Control Theory","volume":"22 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.5,"publicationDate":"2023-07-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73081150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

With the finite history seen as an (additional) initial datum for the evolution, following the variational approach utilized in the study of the linear-quadratic problem for memoryless infinite dimensional systems, we attain a closed-loop form of the unique optimal control via certain operators that are shown to solve a coupled system of quadratic differential equations. This result provides a first extension to the partial differential equations realm of the Riccati-based theory recently devised by L.
