Synopsis

We study the stabilisation of a one-dimensional diffusion equation by means of static feedback. The equation contains the so-called Sturm-Liouville operator (S-L operator). A perturbation, often interpreted as an error in modelling physical systems, enters the principal part and the boundary condition of the S-L operator. Since the perturbation is not subordinate to the operator, the classical perturbation theory is no longer available. We show, however, that the feedback stabilisation scheme for the unperturbed equation is effective also for the perturbed equation as long as the perturbation is small in an adequate topology. The key idea is to show the strong continuity of the eigenfunctions for the S-L operator relative to the coefficients of the operator.
