Stackelberg-Nash exact controllability for linear and semilinear parabolic equations

This paper deals with the application of Stackelberg–Nash strategies to the control of parabolic equations. We assume that we can act on the system through a hierarchy of controls. A first control (the leader) is assumed to choose the policy. Then, a Nash equilibrium pair (corresponding to a noncoop...

Sumario:This paper deals with the application of Stackelberg–Nash strategies to the control of parabolic equations. We assume that we can act on the system through a hierarchy of controls. A first control (the leader) is assumed to choose the policy. Then, a Nash equilibrium pair (corresponding to a noncooperative multiple-objective optimization strategy) is found; this governs the action of the other controls (the followers). The main novelty in this paper is that, this way, we can obtain the exact controllability to a prescribed (but arbitrary) trajectory. We study linear and semilinear problems and, also, problems with pointwise constraints on the followers.
