Second-order Optimality Conditions for Time-Optimal Control Problems Governed by Semilinear Parabolic Equations

Abstract: A class of time-optimal control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations with mixed pointwise constraints and final point constraints is considered. By introducing the so-called locally optimal solution to time-optimal control problems, we establish first and second-order necessary optimality conditions of KKT-type and second-order sufficient conditions for locally optimal solutions to the problem.
