Abstract

The notion of sentinels with given sensitivity was introduced by J.-L. Lions in [10] in order to identify parameters in a problem of pollution ruled by a semilinear parabolic equation. He proves that the existence of such sentinels is reduced to the solution of exact controllability problem with constraints on the state. Reconsidering this notion of sentinels in a more general framework, we prove the existence of the new sentinels by solving a boundary null-controllability problem with constraint on the control. Our results use a Carleman inequality which is adapted to the constraint.
