We consider a constrained optimal control of an advection-reaction partial differential equation (PDE). We prove the existence of a minimizer and we characterize the solution as the weak solution of a system of two coupled PDEs. This system is composed of a Fokker-Planck equation and of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation, similarly to systems obtained in Mean Field Games (MFG). We provide regularity results of the solutions.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
