Introduction Controllability problems for hyperbolic partial di�erential equation were in- vestigated in a number of papers (see, e.g., the references in [1]). One of the most generally accepted ways to study control systems with dis- tributed parameters is their interpretation in the form dw dt = Aw+Bu; t 2 (0; T ); (0.1) where T > 0, w : (0; T ) �! H is an unknown function, u : (0; T ) �! H is a control, H, H are Banach spaces, A is an in�nitesimal operator in H, B : H �! H is a linear bounded operator. An important advantage of this approach is a possibility to employ ideas and technique of the semigroup operator theory. At the same time it should be noticed that the most substantial and important for Mathematics Subject Classi�cation 2000: 93B05, 35B37, 35L05. Key words: wave equation, control problem. c L.V. Fardigola, 2005 L.V. Fardigola applications results on operator semigroups deal with the case when the semigroup generator A has a discrete spectrum or a compact resolvent and therefore the semigroup may be treated by means of eigenelements of A. These assumptions correspond to di�erential equations in bounded domains only. In this paper we consider the wave equation on a half-plane. We should note that most of papers studied controllability problems for the wave equation dealt with this equation on bounded domains and controllability problems considered in context of L2-controllability or, more generally, Lp-controllability (2 � p < +1) [2�6]. But only L1-controls can be realized practically. Moreover, such controls should be bounded by a hard constant (like in restriction (0.4)) for practical purposes. Furthermore classical control theory started precisely from this point view as switching controls are the ones realized in a concrete system. That is why we build also bang-bang controls solving approximate null-controllability problem in this paper. Controllability problems for the wave equation on a half-axis in context of bounded of a hard constant controls were investigated in [9, 10]. Consider the wave equation on a half-plane @2w @t2 = �w; x1 2 R; x2 > 0; t 2 (0; T ); (0.2) controlled by the boundary condition w(x1; 0; t) = Æ(x1)u(t); x1 2 R; t 2 (0; T ); (0.3) where T > 0. We also assume that the control u satis�es the restriction u 2 B(0; T ) = � v 2 L2 (0; T ) j jv(t)j � 1 almost everywhere on (0; T ) : (0.4) All functions appearing in the equation (0.2) are de�ned for x1 2 R, x2 � 0. Further, we assume everywhere that they are de�ned for x 2 R 2 and vanish for x2 < 0. Let us give de�nitions of the spaces used in our work. Let S be the Schwartz space [7] S = n ' 2 C1 (R n ) j 8m 2 N 8l 2 N sup n���D�'(x) ��� �1 + jxj2 �l j x 2 R n ^ j�j � m o < +1 o ; S+ = f' 2 S j supp' 2 R � (0;+1)g and let S0, S0+ be the dual spaces, here D = (�i@=@x1; : : : ;�i@=@xn), � = (�1; : : : �n) is multi-index, j�j = �1 + � � �+ �n, j � j is the Euclidean norm. 94 Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 On controllability problems for the wave equation on a half-plane Denote by Hs l the following Sobolev spaces: Hs l = n ' 2 S0 j � 1 + jxj2 �l=2 � 1 + jDj2 �s=2 ' 2 L2 (R n ) o ; k'ksl = 0@Z Rn ����1 + jxj2 �l=2 � 1 + jDj2 �s=2 '(x) ���2 dx 1A1=2 : Let F : S0 �! S0 be the Fourier transform operator. For ' 2 S we have (F') (�) = (2�)�n=2 Z Rn e�ihx;�i'(x) dx; where h�; �i is the scalar product in R n corresponding to the Euclidean norm. It is well known [8, Ch. 1] that FHs 0 = H0 s and k'ks0 = kF'k0 s , if ' 2 Hs 0 . A distribution f 2 S0 is said to be odd if (f; '(�)) = �(f; '(��)), ' 2 S. Further, we assume throughout the paper that s � 0 and use the spaces H s = � ' 2 Hs 0 �Hs�1 0 j ' 2 S0+ ^ 9'(+0) 2 R ;eHs = � ' 2 Hs 0 �Hs�1 0 j ' is odd with resp. to x2 with the norm jjj'jjjs = �� k'0ks0 �2 + � k'1ks�1 0 �2�1=2 and also the space bHs = � ' 2 H0 s �H0 s�1 j ' is odd with resp. to �2 with the norm [[j'j]] s = �� k'0k0s �2 + � k'1k0s�1 �2�1=2 . Denote by A the following operator A = � 0 1 � 0 � ; A : eHs�2 �! eHs�2; D(A) = eHs (0.5) and by B the operator B = � 0 �2Æ(x1)Æ0(x2) � ; B : R �! eHs�2; D(B) = R; (0.6) where Æ is the Dirac function. Then the system (0.2), (0.3) is reduced to the form (0.1) with these operators A and B. In Section 1 we obtain necessary and su�cient conditions for null-controllabi- lity and approximate null-controllability for the system (0.2), (0.3) with restric- tions (0.4) on the control. Controls solving the problems of null-controllability and approximate null-controllability are found explicitly. But these controls may have a rather complicated form. Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 95 L.V. Fardigola The main goal of the Section 2 is to build bang-bang controls solving the approximate null-controllability problem. We show that this problem can be reduced to a system of Markov power moment problems. They may be solved by the method given in [9]. Further, we prove that solutions of the Markov power moment problems give us solutions of the approximate null-controllability problem (Theorems 2.3, 2.4). In Sections 3 and 4 some auxiliary statements are proved. 1. Null-controllability problems Consider the control system (0.2), (0.3) with the initial conditions� w(x; 0) = w0 0(x) @w(x; 0)=@t = w0 1(x) ; x1 2 R; x2 > 0; (1.1) and the steering conditions� w(x; T ) = wT 0 (x) @w(x; T )=@t = wT 1 (x) ; x1 2 R; x2 > 0; (1.2) where w0 = � w0 0 w0 1 � 2 Hs, wT = � wT 0 wT 1 � 2 Hs. We consider solutions of the problem (0.2), (0.3) in the space Hs. Let T > 0, w0 2 Hs. Denote by RT (w 0 ) the set of states wT 2 Hs for which there exists a control u 2 B(0; T ) such that the problem (0.2), (0.3), (1.1), (1.2) has a unique solution. De�nition 1.1. A state w0 2 Hs is called null-controllable at a given time T > 0 if 0 belongs to RT (w 0 ) and approximately null-controllable at a given time T > 0 if 0 belongs to the closure of RT (w 0 ) in Hs . Let w 0 = 2w 0, w T = 2w T , w(�; t) = 2 � w(�; t) @w(�; t)=@t � , where 2 is the odd-extension operator with respect to x2. Evidently, w0 2 eHs, wT 2 eHs, w(�; t) 2 eHs (t 2 (0; T )). It is easy to see that control problem (0.2), (0.3), (1.1), (1.2) is equivalent to the following problem for system (0.1): w(x; 0) = w 0; (1.3) w(x; T ) = w T : (1.4) Let us investigate this new problem. First we analyze the following auxiliary Cauchy problem: system (0.1) with an arbitrary parameter u 2 B(0; T ) under initial condition (1.3). 96 Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 On controllability problems for the wave equation on a half-plane Applying the Fourier transform with respect to x to problem (0.1), (1.3), we obtain the following Cauchy problem in bHs: dv dt = � 0 1 �j�j2 0 � v � i�2 � � 0 1 � u; t 2 (0; T ); (1.5) v(�; 0) = v 0; (1.6) where v(�; t) = Fw(�; t), t 2 [0; T ], v0 = Fw0. Then the function v(�; t) = �(j�j; t) 0@v 0 (�)� i�2 � tZ 0 �(j�j;��) � 0 1 � u(�) d� 1A ; t 2 [0; T ]; (1.7) where �(�; t) � 0@ cos(�t) sin(�t) � �� sin(�t) cos(�t) 1A � � @=@t 1 (@=@t)2 @=@t � sin(�t) � is a unique solution of (1.5), (1.6) in bHs. Put E(jxj; t) = F�1 � �(j�j; t)=(2�). It is well known that F�1 � sin(j�jt) j�j � (x) = sign t H (jtj � jxj)p t2 � jxj2 ; (1.8) where H is the Heaviside function: H(�) = 1 if � � 0 and H(�) = 0 otherwise. Then we have E(r; t) = 1 2� � @=@t 1 (@=@t)2 @=@t � sign t H (jtj � jxj)p t2 � jxj2 : It follows from (1.7) that w(x; T ) = E(jxj; T )� 24w0 (x)� 1 � @ @x2 F �1 0@ TZ 0 0@ �sin(j�jt) j�j cos(j�jt) 1Au(t) dt 1A35 : (1.9) Here and further � is the convolution with respect to x. With regard to Lemma 4.1 we get w(x; T ) = E(jxj; T ) � � w 0 (x)� 1p 2� x2 jxj� � U U 0 � (jxj) � ; (1.10) where U(t) = u(t) (H(t)�H(t� T )), t 2 R. Denote for w0 2 eHs RT (w 0 ) = � E(jxj; T ) � � w 0 (x)� 1p 2� x2 jxj� � U U 0 � (jxj) � j u 2 B(0; T ) � : Then De�nition 1.1 is equivalent to Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 97 L.V. Fardigola De�nition 1.2. A state w 0 2 eHs is called null-controllable at a given time T > 0 if 0 belongs to RT (w 0 ) and approximately null-controllable at a given time T > 0 if 0 belongs to the closure of RT (w 0 ) in eHs . Obviously, the following two statements are true. Statement 1.1. A state w0 2 Hs is null-controllable at a given time T > 0 i� the state w 0 = 2w 0 is null-controllable at this time. Statement 1.2. A state w0 2Hs is approximately null-controllable at a given time T > 0 i� the state w 0 = 2w 0 is approximately null-controllable at this time. Further we consider the (approximate) null-controllability problem for the system (0.1) where w 0 is an odd function with respect to x2. The following theorem give us su�cient conditions for (approximate) null- controllability. Theorem 1.1. For a state w 0 2 eHs assume that there exists w 0 2 S0 such that following conditions hold: w 0 = x2 jxjw 0 (jxj) in Hs 0 �Hs�1 0 ; (1.11) suppw 0 � [0; T ]; (1.12)��w0 0(r) �� � T �r p T 2 � r2 a.e. on (0; T ); (1.13) w 0 1(r) = d dr 24w0 0(r) + 1Z �1 w 0 0(�)k(�; r) d� 35 ; (1.14) where k(�; r) = 2 � H (�(� � r)) �=2Z 0 sin 2 � d�p �2 sin2 �+ r2 cos2 � . Then the state w 0 is null-controllable at the time T . Moreover, the solution of the null-controllability problem (the control u) is unique and u(t) = 2t TZ t w 0 0(r) drp r2 � t2 a.e. on (0; T ): 98 Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 On controllability problems for the wave equation on a half-plane P r o o f. Put U = 1p 2� �w 0 0: (1.15) It follows from (1.12) and Lemma 3.2 that suppU � (0; T ) and U(t) = 2t TZ t w 0 0(r) drp r2 � t2 a.e. on (0; T ): Denote u(t) = U(t), t 2 (0; T ). Due to (1.13) we obtain ju(t)j � 1 a.e. on (0; T ). Applying Lemma 4.2 and (1.15), we have w 0 1 = d dr 24w0 0 + 1Z �1 w 0 0(�)k(�; �) d� 35 = � d dt � �1 w 0 0 = 1p 2� �U 0: Finally, taking into account (1.10), (1.11), (1.15), we get that w(x; T ) = 0 for the found control u where w is a solution of the Cauchy problem (0.1), (1.3). Invertibility of the operator � (see Sect. 4) implies uniqueness of the control u solving the null-controllability problem. Thus the state w0 is null-controllable at the time T that was to be proved. The following theorem asserts that conditions (1.11)�(1.14) are not only suf- �cient but also necessary for (approximate) null-controllability. Theorem 1.2. If a state w 0 2 eHs is approximately null controllable at a given time T > 0 then there exists w 0 2 S0 such that conditions (1.11)�(1.14) hold. P r o o f. For each n 2 N there exists a state w n 2 RT (w 0 ) such that jjjwnjjjs < 1=n. With regard to (1.10) for some un 2 B(0; T ) we have w n (x) = E(jxj; T ) � � w 0 (x)� 1p 2� x2 jxj� � Un U 0 n � (jxj) � ; t 2 R; where Un(t) = un(t) (H(t)�H(t� T )). Using Lemma 4.4, we obtain 1p 2� x2 jxj� � Un U 0 n � (jxj) �! w 0 as n �!1 in eHs: (1.16) Therefore w 0 = x2 jxjw 0 (jxj). According to the Lemma 3.2 suppw 0 0 � [0; T ]. Thus (1.11), (1.12) are true. Denote �Un = hn0 , �U 0 n = hn1 . Taking into account Lemma 4.3, we obtain jhn0 j � T �r p T 2 � r2 ; r 2 (0; T ): (1.17) Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 99 L.V. Fardigola Let an arbitrary " > 0 be �xed, V (") = � x 2 R 2 j jxj < " . It follows from (1.16) that hn(jxj) �! w 0 (jxj) as n �!1 in S0: (1.18) Since hn0 (jxj) 2 L2 � R 2nV (") � and S is dense in L2 � R 2 � we obtain hn0 (jxj) �! w 0 0(jxj) as n �!1 in � L2 � R 2nV (") ��0 : By the Riesz theorem we conclude that w 0 0(jxj) 2 L2 � R 2nV (") � and w 0 0 2 L2 (";+1). Taking into account arbitrariness of " > 0 and (1.17), we get (1.13). We have hn1 = � d dt � �1hn0 . Due to Lemmas 3.1, 4.2 and (1.17) we get (1.14). The theorem is proved. 2. Bang-bang controls and the Markov power moment problem The solution of the null-controllability problem (i.e., the control) found in Sect. 1 may be too complicated for the practical purposes. In this section we �nd bang-bang controls solving the approximate null-controllability problem.We consider a system of Markov power moment problems and show that their bang- bang solutions are solutions of the approximate null-controllability problem. Consider control system (0.1), (1.3) and assume that for T > 0 and w 0 2 eHs conditions (1.11)�(1.14) hold. According to Theorem 1.1 there exists eu 2 B(0; T ) such that w 0 = 1p 2� � �eU� (r); (2.1) where eU(t) = eu(t) [H(t)�H(t� T )]. With regard to Lemma 4.1 and (1.11) we get v 0 (�) = 1 � i�2 TZ 0 0@ �sin(j�jt) j�j cos(j�jt) 1Aeu(t) dt; where v 0 = F 2w 0. Put h(�; u) = 1 � TZ 0 0@ �sin(�t) � cos(�t) 1A (eu(t)� u(t)) dt: (2.2) Then for system (1.5), (1.6) we get v(�; T ) = �(j�j; T )i�2h(j�j; u): With regard to (1.7) and Lemma 4.4 we conclude that [[jv(�; T )j]] s � p 4T 2 + 6 [[ji�2h(j�j; u)j]]s : 100 Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 On controllability problems for the wave equation on a half-plane We have � ki�2hj(j�j; u)k0s�j �2 = � 1Z 0 � 1 + �2 �s�j jhj(j�j; u)j2 �3 d�; j = 0; 1: Hence [[jv(�; T )j]] s � p 4T 2 + 6 � 0@ 1X j=0 1Z 0 � 1 + �2 �s�j jhj(j�j; u)j2 �3 d� 1A1=2 : (2.3) Thus we have proved Theorem 2.1. Assume that T > 0 and for a state w 0 2 eHs conditions (1.11)� (1.14) are ful�lled. Then the following two assertions hold: i. w 0 is null-controllable at the time T i� there exists u 2 B(0; T ) such that h(�; u) � 0 on R; ii. w 0 is approximately null-controllable at the time T i� for each " > 0 there exists u" 2 B(0; T ) such that 1Z 0 � 1 + �2 �s�j jhj(j�j; u")j2 �3 d� < "2; j = 0; 1: (2.4) Moreover, if estimate (2.4) is true then jjjw(�; T )jjjs = [[jv(�; T )j]] s � �" p 4T 2 + 6; (2.5) where w and v are solutions of (0.1), (1.3) and (1.5), (1.6), respectively. Due to the Wiener�Paley theorem we conclude that h(�; u) is an entire func- tion with respect to �. Let us expand it in the Taylor series. To do this we calculate h(m) (0; u) (we consider the derivatives with respect to �). Put ev0(�) = 1 � TZ 0 0@ �sin(�t) � cos(�t) 1Aeu(t) dt; ew0 (jxj) = F �1ev0(j�j): (2.6) Evidently ev0 is also entire. With regard to (1.11) and Lemma 4.1 we get w 0 = ew00: (2.7) Journal of Mathematical Physics, Analysis, Geometry , 2005, v. 1, No. 1 101 L.V. Fardigola According to (1.11), (1.12) and (1.14), we conclude that ew0 0(r) = (H(r)�H(r � T )) TZ r eu(t) dtp t2 � r2 ; (2.8) ew0 1(r) = w 0 0(r) + 1Z �1 w 0 0(�)k(�; r) d�: (2.9) Obviously, supp ew0 0 � [0; T ].
