Abstract
This paper deals with the application of Stackelberg–Nash strategies to the control of parabolic equations. We assume that we can act on the system through a hierarchy of controls. A first control (the leader) is assumed to choose the policy. Then, a Nash equilibrium pair (corresponding to a noncooperative multiple-objective optimization strategy) is found; this governs the action of the other controls (the followers). The main novelty in this paper is that, this way, we can obtain the exact controllability to a prescribed (but arbitrary) trajectory. We study linear and semilinear problems and, also, problems with pointwise constraints on the followers.
