The observation region is restricted over a product set of an open nonempty subset of $\\Omega$ and a subset of positive measure in $(0,T)$. This estimate is derived with the aid of a quantitative unique continuation at one point in time. Applications to the bang-bang property for norm and time optimal control problems are provided.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2011-09-18T12:05:25.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "parabolic equations", "measurable set", "time optimal control problems", "open nonempty subset", "convex domain" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2011arXiv1109.3863D" } } }
