Abstract
In this paper, we investigate a stochastic Galerkin approximation scheme for an optimal control problem governed by an elliptic PDE with random field in its coefficients. The optimal control minimizes the expectation of a cost functional with mean-state constraints. We first represent the stochastic elliptic PDE in terms of the generalized polynomial chaos expansion and obtain the parameterized optimal control problems. By applying the Slater condition in the subdifferential calculus, we obtain the necessary and sufficient optimality conditions for the state-constrained stochastic optimal control problem for the first time in the literature. We then establish a stochastic Galerkin scheme to approximate the optimality system in the spatial space and the probability space. Then the a priori error estimates are derived for the state, the co-state and the control variables. A projection algorithm is proposed and analyzed. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate our theoretical results.
