Abstract
In this paper, we present an application of optimal control theory on a two-dimensional spatial-temporal SEIR (susceptible, exposed, infected, and restored) epidemic model, in the form of a partial differential equation. Our goal is to minimize the number of susceptible and infected individuals and to maximize recovered individuals by reducing the cost of vaccination. In addition, the existence of the optimal control and solution of the state system is proven. The characterization of the control is given in terms of state function and adjoint. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of our adopted approach.
