    Volume II focuses on the optimal control problem over a finite time interval for hyperbolic dynamical systems. The chapters consider some abstract models, each motivated by a particular canonical hyperbolic dynamics, and present numerous new results.

    • In-depth, comprehensive coverage
    • Wealth of illustrative examples
    • Continuous theory and numerical approximation theory

    Reviews & endorsements

    Review of the hardback: 'This excellent work will be a key reference for all of those who are interested in the quadratic optimal control of hyperbolic partial differential equations (PDEs) and in general in the control of PDEs.' A. Akutowicz, Zentralblatt für Mathematik

    Review of the hardback: 'The reader will find much important information on various aspects of semigroup theory and on the regularity of solutions of hyperbolic equations.' EMS Newsletter
