This special volume focuses on optimization and control of processes governed by partial differential equations. The contributors are mostly participants of the DFG-priority program 1253: Optimization with PDE-constraints which is active since 2006. The book is organized in sections which cover almost the entire spectrum of modern research in this emerging field. Indeed, even though the field of optimal control and optimization for PDE-constrained problems has undergone a dramatic increase of interest during the last four decades, a full theory for nonlinear problems is still lacking. The contributions of this volume, some of which have the character of survey articles, therefore, aim at creating and developing further new ideas for optimization, control and corresponding numerical simulations of systems of possibly coupled nonlinear partial differential equations. The research conducted within this unique network of groups in more than fifteen German universities focuses on novel methods of optimization, control and identification for problems in infinite-dimensional spaces, shape and topology problems, model reduction and adaptivity, discretization concepts and important applications. Besides the theoretical interest, the most prominent question is about the effectiveness of model-based numerical optimization methods for PDEs versus a black-box approach that uses existing codes, often heuristic-based, for optimization.

Many of the most challenging problems in the applied sciences involve non-differentiable structures as well as partial differential operators, thus leading to non-smooth distributed parameter systems. This edited volume aims to establish a theoretical and numerical foundation and develop new algorithmic paradigms for the treatment of non-smooth phenomena and associated parameter influences. Other goals include the realization and further advancement of these concepts in the context of robust and hierarchical optimization, partial differential games, and nonlinear partial differential complementarity problems, as well as their validation in the context of complex applications. Areas for which applications are considered include optimal control of multiphase fluids and of superconductors, image processing, thermoforming, and the formation of rivers and networks. Chapters are written by leading researchers and present results obtained in the first funding phase of the DFG Special Priority Program on Nonsmooth and Complementarity Based Distributed Parameter Systems: Simulation and Hierarchical Optimization that ran from 2016 to 2019.
Solving optimization problems subject to constraints given in terms of partial d- ferential equations (PDEs) with additional constraints on the controls and/or states is one of the most challenging problems in the context of industrial, medical and economical applications, where the transition from model-based numerical si- lations to model-based design and optimal control is crucial. For the treatment of such optimization problems the interaction of optimization techniques and num- ical simulation plays a central role. After proper discretization, the number of op- 3 10 timization variables varies between 10 and 10 . It is only very recently that the enormous advances in computing power have made it possible to attack problems of this size. However, in order to accomplish this task it is crucial to utilize and f- ther explore the speci?c mathematical structure of optimization problems with PDE constraints, and to develop new mathematical approaches concerning mathematical analysis, structure exploiting algorithms, and discretization, with a special focus on prototype applications. The present book provides a modern introduction to the rapidly developing ma- ematical ?eld of optimization with PDE constraints. The ?rst chapter introduces to the analytical background and optimality theory for optimization problems with PDEs. Optimization problems with PDE-constraints are posed in in?nite dim- sional spaces. Therefore, functional analytic techniques, function space theory, as well as existence- and uniqueness results for the underlying PDE are essential to study the existence of optimal solutions and to derive optimality conditions.
Das Buch gibt eine Einfuhrung in zentrale Konzepte und Methoden der Nichtlinearen Optimierung. Es ist aus Vorlesungen der Autoren an der TU Munchen, der TU Darmstadt und der Universitat Hamburg entstanden. Der Inhalt des Buches wurde insbesondere auf mathematische Bachelorstudiengange zugeschnitten und hat sich als Basis entsprechender Vorlesungen sowie fur eine anschlieende Vertiefung im Bereich der Optimierung bewahrt. Der Umfang entspricht zwei zweistundigen oder einer vierstundigen Vorlesung, wobei etwa in gleichem Umfang sowohl unrestringierte Optimierungsprobleme als auch Optimierungsprobleme mit Nebenbedingungen behandelt werden. Im Teil uber die unrestringierte Optimierung werden sowohl Trust-Region- als auch Liniensuch-Methoden zur Globalisierung behandelt. Fur letztere wird ein ebenso leistungsfahiges wie intuitives Konzept der zulassigen Suchrichtungen und Schrittweiten entwickelt. Die schnelle lokale Konvergenz Newton-artiger Verfahren und ihre Globalisierung sind weitere wichtige Themengebiete. Das Kapitel uber restringierte Optimierung entwickelt notwendige und hinreichende Optimalitatsbedingungen und geht auf wichtige numerische Verfahren, insbesondere Sequential Quadratic Programming, Penalty- und Barriereverfahren ein. Der Bezug von Barriereverfahren zu den aktuell intensiv untersuchten Innere-Punkte-Verfahren wird ebenfalls hergestellt.
Semismooth Newton methods are a modern class of remarkably powerful and versatile algorithms for solving constrained optimization problems with partial differential equations (PDEs), variational inequalities, and related problems. This book provides a comprehensive presentation of these methods in function spaces, striking a balance between thoroughly developed theory and numerical applications. Although largely self-contained, the book also covers recent developments in the field, such as state-constrained problems and offers new material on topics such as improved mesh independence results. The theory and methods are applied to a range of practically important problems, including optimal control of semilinear elliptic differential equations, obstacle problems, and flow control of instationary Navier-Stokes fluids. In addition, the author covers adjoint-based derivative computation and the efficient solution of Newton systems by multigrid and preconditioned iterative methods.
