Abstract
This paper studies an evolutional type inverse problem of identifying the radiative coefficient of heat conduction equation when the over-specified data is given. Problems of this type have important applications in several fields of applied science. Being different from other ordinary inverse coefficient problems, the unknown coefficient in this paper depends on both the space variable x and the time t. Based on the optimal control framework, the inverse problem is transformed into an optimization problem and a new cost functional is constructed in the paper. The existence, uniqueness and stability of the minimizer of the cost functional are proved, and the necessary conditions which must be satisfied by the minimizer are also given. The results obtained in the paper are interesting and useful, and can be extended to more general parabolic equations.
