Abstract

We consider optimal distributed and boundary control problems for semilinear parabolic equations, where pointwise constraints on the control and pointwise mixed control-state constraints of bottleneck type are given. Our main result states the existence of regular Lagrange multipliers for the state-constraints. Under natural assumptions, we are able to show the existence of bounded and measurable Lagrange multipliers. The method is based on results from the theory of continuous linear programming problems.
