2 Abstract In this paper, we investigate an a posteriori error estimate of a control constrained optimal control problem governed by a time-dependent convection diffusion equation. Control constraints are handled by using the primal-dual active set algorithm as a semi-smooth Newton method or by adding a Moreau-Yosida-type penalty function to the cost functional. An adaptive mesh refinement indicated by a posteriori error estimates is applied for both approaches. A symmetric interior penalty Galerkin method in space and a backward Euler in time are applied in order to discretize the optimization problem. Numerical results are presented, which illustrate the performance of the proposed error estimator.

3 1 Introduction Optimal control problems OCPs governed by convection diffusion partial differential equations PDEs arise in environmental modeling, petroleum reservoir simulation and in many other engineering applications [9, 1, 27]. Efficient numerical methods are essential to successful applications of such optimal control problems. Several well-established techniques have been proposed to enhance stability and accuracy of the optimal control problems governed by the steady convection diffusion equations, i.e., the streamline upwind/petrov Galerkin SUPG finite element method [8], the local projection stabilization [4], the edge stabilization [18, 35], discontinuous Galerkin methods [22, 36, 37, 38, 39]. Also, only few papers are published so far for unsteady optimal control problems governed by convection diffusion equations, i.e., the characteristic finite element method [11, 12], the streamline upwind/petrov Galerkin SUPG finite element method [31], the local discontinuous Galerkin LDG method [41], the nonsymmetric interior penalty Galerkin NIPG [33], and the symmetric interior penalty Galerkin SIPG method [1]. Adaptive finite element approximations are particularly attractive for the solution of optimal control problems governed by elliptic convection dominated partial differential equations PDEs, since the solution of the governing state PDE or the solution of the associated adjoint PDE may exhibit boundary and/or interior layers, localized regions where the derivative of the PDE solution is large. It allows local mesh refinement around the layers as needed, thereby achieving a desired residual error bound with as few degrees of freedom as possible. The a posteriori error analysis of the optimal control problems governed by parabolic equations is discussed in [25, 26, 34]. For the optimal control problems governed by time-dependent convection diffusion equations, the a posteriori error analyses are investigated by using a characteristic finite element discretization in [13] and by using the edge stabilization in [4]. We here will derive an a posteriori error analysis of the optimal control problems governed by the transient convection diffusion equations using the discontinuous Galerkin method in space and the backward Euler method in time. We apply discontinuous Galerkin DG discretization for convection dominated optimal control problems due to their better convergence behavior, local mass conservation, flexibility in approximating rough solutions on complicated meshes and mesh adaptation. We would like to refer to [3, 17, 3] for the discontinuous Galerkin methods in details. To solve the optimization problem, we use both the primal-dual active set strategy and the Moreau-Yosida regularization. Suitable error estimators are introduced for both cases. However, the a posteriori error analysis of the Moreau-Yosida regularized optimization problem depends on the regularization parameter δ. Therefore, we formally assume that the Moreau-Yosida regularization parameter to be fixed in advance as done in [15, 36]. The rest of the paper is organized as follows: in the next section, we introduce control constrained optimal control problems governed by transient convection diffusion equation. We apply the symmetric interior penalty Galerkin SIPG method for the diffusion and the upwind discretization for the convection in order to discretize the optimization problem in space. The primal-dual active set strategy as a semi-smooth Newton method is also introduced to solve the optimality system. The error estimator of the primal-dual active set approach and the reliability of the error estimator are derived in Section 3. The other approach to solve the control constrained optimal control problem, the Moreau-Yosida regularization, is given in 1

4 Section 4. Section 5 contains the numerical experiments to illustrate the performance of the proposed error estimators. 2 Approximation schemes for the optimal control problem In this section, we introduce the discontinuous Galerkin finite element discretization in space and the backward Euler discretization in time for the approximations of the distributed linearquadratic optimal control problems governed by unsteady convection diffusion PDEs. We adopt the standard notations for Sobolev spaces on computational domains and their norms. Ω and Ω U are bounded open sets in R 2 with Lipschitz boundaries Ω and Ω U, respectively. Although adaptive finite element methods provide a real benefit on non-convex domains, for example such with reentrant corners in practical applications, we assume that Ω and Ω U are convex polygons for simplicity. The inner products in L 2 Ω U and L 2 Ω are denoted by, U and,, respectively. Here, a b means that a Cb for some positive constant C. Further, we consider the Bochner spaces of functions mapping the time interval,t to a Bänsch space V in which the norm V is defined. For r 1, we define with L r,t ;V={z :[,T] V measurable : z r V dt < } T 1/r, z L r,t;v = z r V dt if 1 r<, ess sup z V, if r=. t,t] In this paper, we shall take the state space W = L 2,T;V with V = H 1 Ω, and the control space X = L 2,T ;U with U = L 2 Ω U. We are interested in the following distributed optimal control problem governed by a transient convection diffusion equation: 1 min Jy,u := u U ad X 2 y y d 2 L 2 Ω α 2 u u d 2 L 2 ΩU dt, 1 subject to t y ε yβ y= f Bu, x Ω, t,t], 2a yx,t=, x Ω, t,t], 2b yx,=y x, x Ω, 2c where the closed convex admissible set of control constraints is given by U ad ={u X : u a u u b, a.e. in Ω U,T]} 3 with the constant bounds, u a u b. The function u d, called desired control, is a guideline for the control, see, e.g., [7]. Note that this formulation also allows for the special and most common case u d =, i.e. there is no a priori information on the optimal control. B is a 2

5 linear continuous operator from X to L 2,T;V realizing the transition between Ω U and Ω. Generally, Ω U can be a subset of Ω. In the special case Ω U = Ω, B=I is the identity operator on L 2 Ω. We make the following assumptions for the functions and parameters in the optimal control problem 1-3: i The source function f, the desired state y d, and the desired control u d satisfy the following regularity: f,y d L 2,T ;L 2 Ω and u d L 2,T;U. ii The initial condition is defined as y x V = H 1 Ω. iii β denotes a velocity field. It belongs to W 1, Ω 2 and satisfies the incompressibility condition, i.e. β=. The diffusion parameter ε is also taken as <ε 1. Using the assumptions defined above, the following result on regularity of the state solution can be stated. Proposition 2.1 [24] Under the assumptions defined above and for a given control u L 2,T ;L 2 Ω U, the state y satisfies the following regularity condition and the weak formulation y H 1,T ;L 2 Ω L 2,T ;H 1 Ω t yu,vay,v= f Bu,v v V, 4 yx,=y, where the bi-linear forms are defined by ay,v= ε y vβ yv dx, f,v= Ω Ω f v dx. Then, the variational formulation corresponding to 1-3 can be written as 1 min Jy,u := u U ad 2 y y d 2 L 2 Ω α 2 u u d 2 L 2 ΩU dt 5a subject to t y,vay,v= f Bu,v v V, t,t], 5b yx,=y, y,u H 1,T;L 2 Ω W U ad. It can be derived by the standard techniques see, e.g., [14] and [23] that the control problem 5 has a unique solution y,u, and that y,u is the solution of 5 if and only if there exists an adjoint p H 1,T ;L 2 Ω W such thaty,u, p satisfies the following optimality system for t,t] t y,vay,v= f Bu,v v V, yx,=y, 6a t y,ψaψ, p=y y d,ψ ψ V, px,t=, 6b αu u d B p,w u U dt w U ad, 6c 3

6 where B denotes the adjoint of B. From the second equation 6b, we deduce that the adjoint p satisfies the following transient convection diffusion equation: t p ε p β y= y y d x Ω, t,t], 7a 2.1 Discontinuous Galerkin DG scheme px,t= x Ω, t,t], 7b px,t= x Ω. 7c In the following, we construct the discontinuous Galerkin finite element scheme for the state equation 2. Let{T h } h be a family of shape-regular simplicial triangulations of Ω. Each mesh T h consists of closed triangles such that Ω= K T h K holds. We assume that the mesh is regular in the following sense: for different triangles K i,k j T h, i j, the intersection K i K j is either empty or a vertex or an edge, i.e., hanging nodes are not allowed. The diameter of an element K and the length of an edge E are denoted by h K and h E, respectively. Further, the maximum value of the element diameter is denoted by h= max h K. K T h We split the set of all edges E h into the set Eh of interior edges and the set E h of boundary edges so that E h = Eh E h. Let n denote the unit outward normal to Ω. The inflow and outflow parts of Ω are denoted by Γ and Γ, respectively, Γ ={x Ω : β nx<}, Γ ={x Ω : β nx }. Similarly, the inflow and outflow boundaries of an element K are defined by K ={x K : β n K x<}, K ={x K : β n K x }, where n K is the unit normal vector on the boundary K of an element K. Let the edge E be a common edge for two elements K and K e. For a piecewise continuous scalar function y, there are two traces of y along E, denoted by y E from inside K and y e E from inside K e. The jump and average of y across the edge E are defined by: [[y]]=y E n K y e E n K e, {{y}}= 1 2 y E y e E. 8 Similarly, for a piecewise continuous vector field y, the jump and average across an edge E are given by [[ y]]= y E n K y e E n K e, {{ y}}= 1 2 y E y e E. 9 For a boundary edge E K Γ, we set {{ y}} = y and [[y]] = yn, where n is the outward normal unit vector on Γ. We only consider discontinuous piecewise linear finite element spaces to define the discrete spaces of the state and test functions V h = W h = { y L 2 Ω : y K P 1 K K T h }. 1 4

7 Remark 2.2 When the state equation 2 contains nonhomogeneous Dirichlet boundary conditions, the space of discrete states W h and the space of test functions V h can still be taken to be the same due to the weak treatment of boundary conditions in DG methods. We now consider the discretization of the control variable. Let {Th U} h be also a family of shape-regular simplicial triangulations of Ω U such that Ω U = K U Th U K U holds. For KU i,k j U T h U, i j, the intersection Ki U K j U is either empty or a vertex or an edge. The maximum diameter is defined by h U = max h KU, where h KU denotes the diameter of an element K U Th U K U. The discrete space of the control variable associated with {Th U} h is also a discontinuous piecewise linear finite element space X h = { u L 2 Ω U : u KU P 1 K U K U T U h }. 11 We can now give the DG discretizations of the state equation 2 in space for a fixed control u. The DG method proposed here is based on the upwind discretization of the convection term and on the SIPG discretization of the diffusion term. Recall that in discontinuous Galerkin methods we do not explicitly impose continuity constraints on the trial and test functions across the element interfaces. As a consequence, weak formulations include jump terms across interfaces, and penalty terms are typically added to control the jump terms. We refer to [3, 3] for a rigorous derivation of the following bi-linear forms applied to y h H 1,T ;W h for a fixed control u h and t,t]: t y h,v h a h y h,v h = f Bu h,v h v h V h, 12 where σε a h y,v= ε y v dx {{ε y}} [[v]]{{ε v}} [[y]] ds [[y]] [[v]] ds K T h K E E h E E E h E h E β yv dx β ny e yv ds β nyv ds 13 K T h K K T h K K T \Γ h K Γ with the nonnegative real parameter σ being called the penalty parameter. We choose σ to be sufficiently large, independent of the mesh size h and the diffusion coefficient ε to ensure the stability of the DG discretization as described in [3, Sec ]. 2.2 Primal-dual active set PDAS strategy We here explain our first approach to solve the control constrained optimal control problem 1-3, called the primal-dual active set PDAS strategy introduced in [5]. We first define the semi-discrete approximation of the optimal control problem 5 as follows: min u h U ad h 1 2 K T h y h y d 2 L 2 K α 2 u h u d 2 L 2 K U K U Th U dt, subject to t y h,v h a h y h,v h = f Bu h,v h v h V h, t,t], y h x,=y h x, y h,u h H 1,T;W h U ad h, 14a 14b 5

8 where U ad h ={u h L 2,T;X h : u a u h u b a.e. in Ω U,T]} 14c is a closed convex set in L 2,T ;X h. For ease of exposition, we also assume Uh ad U ad L 2,T ;X h. Let J be a continuous functional in L 2 Ω. Then, there exists a least one solution for the optimization problem 14 since the discrete state yu h can be bounded in the given norm as shown in [1, 33]. Then, it follows that the control problem 14 has a unique solution y h,u h H 1,T;W h Uh ad see, e.g., [23] and that a pair y h,u h is the solution of 14 if and only if there is an adjoint p h H 1,T ;W h such that the triple y h,u h, p h satisfies the following optimality system: t y h,v h a h y h,v h = f Bu h,v h v h V h, 15a y h x,=y h, t p h,ψ h a h ψ h, p h =y h y d,ψ h ψ h V h, 15b p h x,t=, αu h u d B p h,w h u h U dt w h U ad h. 15c We now consider the fully-discrete approximation for the optimal control problem 1-3 using the standard backward Euler scheme in time and the discontinuous Galerkin discretization in space. Let N T be a positive integer. The discrete time interval Ī =[,T] is defined as = t < t 1 < < t NT 1 < t NT = T with size k n = t n t n 1 for n=1,...,n T and k= max k n. n=1,...,n T Then, the fully-discrete approximation scheme of the semi-discrete problem 14 is subject to where min u h,n U ad h,n N T 1 k n n=1 2 y h,n y d n 2 L 2 K α K T 2 h u h,n u d n 2 L 2 K U K U Th U, 16a yh,n y h,n 1,v a h y h,n,v= f n Bu h,n,v v V h, 16b k n y h, x,=y h x, U ad h,n ={u h,n X h : u a u h,n u b a.e. in Ω U } for n=1,2,...,n T. 16c The fully discretized minimization problem 16 has at least one solution due to the boundedness of the solution as shown in [1, Lemma 6]. Then, the fully discretized control problem 16 has a unique solution Y h,n,u h,n W h Uh ad, n=1,2,...,n T, and Y h,n,u h,n, n= 1,2,...,N T is the solution of 16 if and only if there is an adjoint P h,n 1 V h, i=1,2,...,n T, and such thaty h,n,u h,n,p h,n 1 W h Uh ad V h satisfies the following optimality system: 6

9 Yh,n Y h,n 1,v a h Y h,n,v= f n BU h,n,v v V h, 17a k n Y h, = y h n=1,2,...,n T, Ph,n 1 P h,n,q a h q,p h,n 1 =Y h,n y d n k,q q V h, 17b n P h,t = n=n T,...,2,1, αu h,n u d n B ad P h,n 1,w U h,n w Uh,n, n=1,2,...,n T. 17c By following the strategy introduced in [26], we define for n=1,2,...,n T U Y h tn 1,t n ] = t n ty h,n 1 t t n 1 Y h,n /k i, P h tn 1,t n ] = t n tp h,n 1 t t n 1 P h,n /k i, U h tn 1,t n ] = U h,n. 18a 18b 18c Let ŵx,t t tn 1,t n ]= wx,t n and wx,t t tn 1,t n ]= wx,t n 1 for any function w C,T ;L 2 Ω. Then, the optimality system 17 can be restated as Yh t,v a h Ŷ h,v= f BU h,v v V h, 19a Y h x,=y h x n=1,2,...,n T, Ph t,q a h q, P h =Ŷ h ŷ d,q q V h, 19b P h x,t= n=n T,...,2,1, αu h û d B P h,w U h ad w Uh,n, n=1,2,...,n T. 19c U We solve the optimality system 17 by using the primal-dual active set PDAS algorithm as a semi-smooth Newton method [5]. To use this approach, we first need to define the active sets A n ={x Ω : P h,n 1 α u a u d n < }, A n ={x Ω : P h,n 1 α u b u d n > }, and the inactive set I n = Ω\ A n A n for each time step tn. For n = 1,2,...,N T, the discretized optimality system 17 is equivalent to M k n KY n M Y n 1 =l f n MU n, 2a kn K T M P n 1 M P n = M Y n ly d n, 2b αm U n αχ I nlu d n M χ I n 1P n 1 = αm χ A n u a χ A n u b, 2c where K is the stiffness matrix corresponding to a h, and M is the mass matrix. χ A n, χ A n, and χ I n denote the characteristic functions of A n, An, and I n, respectively. Further, lz = Ω zv dx with v V h. By considering all time steps, we then apply the active set algorithm described in Algorithm 1 for the iteration number k. 7

Set the active sets A, A and inactive set I. for k=1,2,... do Solve 2 and update active sets A k, A k and inactive set I k for all time steps. if A k = A k1, A k = A k1, and I k = I k1 then STOP end if end for 3 A posteriori error estimates We here analyse the a posteriori error estimates of the optimal control problem governed by transient convection diffusion equations discretized by the discontinuous Galerkin scheme in space and the backward Euler scheme in time. In general, a posteriori error analysis of the unsteady optimal control problems is more complicated than the ones of the steady optimal control problems due to the fact that the properties of the time variable and its discretization are quite different from those of the space variables. Thus, different approaches are needed to handle the two groups of variables, and their interactions. To derive a sharp estimator for the control, we divide Ω U for each time n=1,2,...,n T as follows: Ω n,a U = {x Ω U :B P h x,t n 1 >αu d x,t n u a, U h,n = u a }, Ω n,a U = {x Ω U :B P h x,t n 1 >αu d x,t n u a, U h,n > u a }, Ω n,b U = {x Ω U :B P h x,t n 1 <αu d x,t n u b, U h,n = u b }, 21 Ω n,b U = {x Ω U :B P h x,t n 1 <αu d x,t n u b, U h,n < u b }, Ω n, U = {x Ω U : αu d x,t n u b B P h x,t n 1 αu d x,t n u a }. It is assumed that the intersection of the above sets is empty, i.e., Ω n,i {,a,a,b,b } and U Ωn, j U Ω U t n =Ω n, U t n Ω n,a U t n Ω n,a U t n Ω n,b U t n Ω n,b U t n. To ease the notation, we define Ω n, U = Ωn, U Ωn,a U Ω n,b U. = / for i j, i, j In the following lemma, we derive an estimate of the control variable in the optimization problem 1-3 by making a connection with the adjoint variable. Lemma 3.1 Let y,u, p and Y h,u h,p h be the solutions of 6 and 17, respectively. Then, we have the following estimate u U h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U η C 2 u P h pu h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω, 22 8

Proof. The inequality 6c gives us α u U h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U = αu,u U h U dt αu d B p,u U h U dt αu h,u U h U dt = αuh û d B P h,u h u U dt }{{} M 1 B P h pu h,u U h U dt }{{} M 3 We first derive an estimate of M 1 for any t t i 1,t i ], αuh û d B P h,u h u U = Ω n, U αu h,u U h U dt αud û d,u U h U dt }{{} αuh û d B P h Uh u dx Ω n,a U Ωn,b U By the definitions of Ω n,a U and Ωn,b U in 21, we have αuh û d B P h Uh u dx Ω n,a U Ωn,b U =.

Application of integration by parts on time derivatives by using the fact y yu h t= = and pu h p t=t = yields M 4 = yuh y,y yu h dt. 3 By inserting the estimates 27-3 of M 1 M 4 into 25, we obtain the desired result. Before deriving error estimates for the state and adjoint equations, we need the following result for the Lagrange interpolation operator Π h, and the trace inequality. Lemma 3.2 [6] Let Π h be the standard Lagrange interpolation operator. For m=,1, q>1 and v W 2,q Ω, there exists a positive constant C such that v Π h v W m,q Ω Ch 2 m v W 2,q Ω. 1

13 Lemma 3.3 [21] For all v W 1,q Ω, 1 q<, v W,q K C h 1/q v W,q K h1 1/q We have the following inequalities, derived in [2], K K v W 1,q K. v 2 L 2 E Ch 1 E v 2 L 2 K, n E v 2 L 2 E Ch 1 E v 2 L 2 K, 31 where the constant C depends on the shape regularity of the mesh. Then, the above inequalities yield the following estimation h E {{ v}} 2 L 2 E C v 2 L 2 K, v V h. 32 E E h K T h We finally define the following stability results derived in [19] for convection diffusion equations. Lemma 3.4 [19] Assume that Ω is a convex domain. Let φ and ψ be the solutions of the dual problems 33 and 34, respectively. Then, for given F L 2,T ;L 2 Ω where v {φ,ψ} satifies v L,T ;L 2 Ω F L 2,T;L 2 Ω, v L 2,T ;L 2 Ω F L 2,T;L 2 Ω, v L 2,T ;L 2 Ω F L 2,T;L 2 Ω, v t L 2,T ;L 2 Ω F L 2,T;L 2 Ω, φ t ε φβ φ= F, x,t Ω,T], φx,t=, x,t Ω [,T], 33 φx,=, x Ω. or ψ t ε ψ β ψ= F, x,t Ω,T], ψx,t=, x,t Ω [,T], 34 ψx,=, x Ω. Now, we turn to estimate the error P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω. Lemma 3.5 Let y,u, p and Y h,u h,p h be the solutions of 6 and 17, respectively. The auxiliary solutions yu h and pu h are defined by the system 24. Assume that Ω is a convex domain, then, P h pu h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω Y h yu h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω 7 i=1η 2 i, where 11

To estimate the first term in the right-hand side of 35, we use Lemma 3.2 and Lemma 3.4 such that I 1 h 4 K Ŷ h ŷ d P 2 h ε P h β P h dx dt φ 2 K T K t H 2 Ω dt h η 2 1 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω. 36 Next, if we rewrite the term I 2 in terms of the jump of P h and use the Lemmas , we obtain ]] I 2 = [[ε P h Φ Φ I ds dt E E h E E E h h 3 E E ]] 2 [[ε P h ds dt φ 2 H 2 Ω dt η 2 2 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω. 37 Then, Lemma 3.4, Young s and the triangle inequalities give us I 3 Ŷ h yu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω ŷ d y d 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω φ 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω η 2 3 Y h yu h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω P h pu h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω. 38 Similarly, using Young s inequality, Lemma 3.3, Lemma 3.4 and the inequality in 32, we obtain 13

16 I 4 η 2 2 η 2 4 P h pu h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω, 39 I 5 η 2 4 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω, 4 I 6 ε Ph P h 2 β P h P h 2 T dx dt φ 2 L 2 Ω φ 2 L Ω dt 2 Ω η 2 5 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω, 41 I 7 η 2 6 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω. 42 Finally, rewriting the term I 8 in terms of the jump operator and using Lemma 3.3 and Lemma 3.4, we have I 8 η 2 7 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω. 43 Inserting into 35, the desired result is obtained. Now, we need to estimate Y h yu h L 2,T ;L 2 Ω. Lemma 3.6 Let y,u, p and Y h,u h,p h be the solutions of 6 and 17, respectively. The auxiliary solutions yu h and pu h are defined by the system 24. Assume that Ω is a convex domain, then, Y h yu h 2 14 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω η 2 i, where η 2 8 = η 2 9 = η 2 1 = η 2 11 = h 4 K f h BU h Y h K T K t h E E h h 3 E E h E E E E h h 3 E K T h K \Γ [[ ε Ŷ h ]] 2 ds dt, [[Ŷh ]] 2 ds dt, β n E [[Ŷh ]] 2 ds dt i=8 ε Ŷ h β h Ŷ h 2 dx dt, η 2 12 = f f 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω P h P h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω, η 2 13 = ε Yh Ŷ h 2 β Y h Ŷ h 2 dx dt, Ω η 2 14 = Y h x, y x 2 L 2 Ω. h 3 E K T h K Γ β ne Ŷ h 2 ds dt, Proof. Similar as before, let ψ be the solution of 34 with F = Y h yu h. Let ψ I = Π h ψ be the Lagrange interpolation of ψ defined as in Lemma 3.2.

From Lemma 3.1, 3.5 and 3.6, we have the following a posteriori error estimate. Theorem 3.7 Let y,u, p and Y h,u h,p h be the solutions of 6 and 17, respectively. The auxiliary solutions yu h and pu h are defined by the system 24. Assume that Ω is a convex domain, then, u U h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U y Y h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω p P h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω η2 u Proof. It follows from 6 and 24 that Lemma 3.1, 3.5 and 3.6 yield u U h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω U yu h y 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω u U h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω U, 45a pu h p 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω yu h y 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω. 45b η 2 u P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω 14 i=1 η 2 i. η 2 u P h P h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω η 2 u 14 i=1 η 2 i. 46 Then, the desired result is obtained by applying the triangle inequality and using the inequalities with Lemmas 3.1, 3.5 and Moreau-Yosida regularization The Moreau-Yosida regularization is a popular technique for the optimal control problems with state constraints. Some recent progress in this area has been summarised in [15, 16, 2, 36], and the references cited therein. However, it also provides challenges for the control constrained case, see, e.g., [28, 32]. 15

18 We penalize the control constraint, i.e. u a u u b, with a Moreau-Yosida-based regularization by modifying the objective functional Jy,u in 1. Now, we wish to minimize Jy,u 1 2δ max{,u ub } 2 L 2 Ω min{,u u a} 2 L 2 Ω dt 47 subject to the state system 2. Here, δ is the Moreau-Yosida regularization parameter. The min- and max-expressions in the regularized objective functional arises from regularizing the indicator function corresponding to the set of admissible controls. The unconstrained optimal control problem 47 has a unique solutiony,u W X if and only if there is an adjoint p W such thaty,u, p satisfies the following system for t,t] t y,vay,v= f Bu,v v V, 48a yx,=y, t y,ψaψ, p=y y d,ψ ψ V, 48b px,t=, αu u d B pσ,w u U dt = w U, 48c where the multiplier corresponding to the control constraint is σ= 1 max{,u u b }min{,u u a }. δ Then, the fully discretized optimality system of the regularized optimal control problem 47 is written as Yh,n Y h,n 1,v a h Y h,n,v= f n BU h,n,v v V h, 49a k n Y h, = y h n=1,2,...,n T, Ph,n 1 P h,n,q a h q,p h,n 1 =Y h,n y d n k,q q V h, 49b n P h,t = n=n T,...,2,1, αu h,n u d nb P h,n 1 σ h,n,w U h,n = w X h, n=1,2,...,n T. 49c U where σ h,n = 1 max{,u h,n u b }min{,u h,n u a }. δ As in the previous section, we restate the optimality system 49 as follows: Yh t,v a h Ŷ h,v= f h BU h,v v V h, 5a Y h x,=y h x n=1,2,...,n T, Ph t,q a h q, P h =Ŷ h ŷ d,q q V h, 5b P h x,t= n=n T,...,2,1, αu h û d B P h σ h,w U h U = w X h, n=1,2,...,n T, 5c 16

19 where σ h = 1 δ max{,u h u b }min{,u h u a }. The optimality system 49 of the Moreau-Yosida approach leads to the following linear system for n=1,...,n T where M k n KY n M Y n 1 =l f n MU n, kn K T M P n 1 M P n = M Y n ly d n αm 1δ χ An M χ An U n αlu d nm P n 1 = 1 δ, 51a χ A M χ an A u an a χ A M χ bn A u bn a, A a n ={x Ω : u u a<}, A b n ={x Ω : u u b> }, and A n = A a n Ab n. Similarly, we now derive an a posteriori error estimate for the Moreau-Yosida regularized optimization problem 47. Lemma 4.1 Let y,u, p andy h,u h,p h be the solutions of 48 and 49, respectively. Then, we have the following estimate u U h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω U η C M u 2 P h pu h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω, 52 where η M u = N T t n n=1 t n 1 ΩU αu h û d B P h 1 δ χa a n U h u a χ A b n U h u b dt αu d û d 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U 53 and the auxiliary functions, i.e., yu h and pu h, are defined as in 24. Proof. By using the inequalities 48c, 49c and 5c, we obtain α u U h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U = = αud B p σ,u U h U dt αu h,u U h U dt αuh û d B P h σ h,u h u U dt }{{} M 1 B P h pu h,u U h U dt }{{} M 3 αud û d,u U h U dt }{{} M 5 σ h σ,u U h U dt } {{ } M 2 B pu h p,u U h U dt } {{ } M

20 We only derive a bound for M 2 in detail, since the estimation of the other terms is similar to the procedure in Lemma 3.1. Recall that the following inequalities min{,a} min{,b} L 2 Ω a b L 2 Ω, max{,a} max{,b} L 2 Ω a b L 2 Ω hold. We here assume that the regularization parameter δ is fixed as done in [15, 36], then we obtain M 2 = 1 max{,uh u b } max{,u u b },u U h dt δ 1 min{,uh u a } min{,u u a },u U h dt δ 1 δ u U h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U. 55 Similarly, we have the following a posteriori error estimate for the regularized optimization problem 47 from Lemma 4.1, 3.5 and 3.6. Theorem 4.2 Let y,u, p and Y h,u h,p h be the solutions of 6 and 17, respectively. The auxiliary solutions yu h and pu h are defined in the system 24. Assume that Ω is a convex domain, then, u U h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω U y Y h 2 L 2,T;L 2 Ω p P h 2 L 2,T ;L 2 Ω ηm u 2 5 Numerical Implementation In this section, we present numerical results to demonstrate the performance of the estimators proposed in Sections 3 and 4. The state, the adjoint, and the control variables are discretized by using piecewise linear polynomials, i.e., x,y,1 x y. The initial guess for the control variable is equal to zero for all discretization levels in Algorithm 1. The penalty parameter within SIPG is chosen as σ=6on the interior edges and 12 on the boundary edges as in [3]. The Moreau-Yosida regularization parameter δ is equal to 1 6. We use uniform time steps and time-step size is k=1/5. Further, we take Ω=Ω U and B=I. Our adaptive strategy can be briefly described as follows: Adaptive Algorithm Input Given an initial mesh partition T h, refinement parameter θ, a tolerance parameter Tol. Step 1. Solve Solve the optimality system 2 obtained by the primal-dual active set PDAS algorithm on the current mesh or the optimality system 51 obtained by applying the Moreau-Yosida regularization. Step 2. Estimate Calculate the local error indicators on each element K and then sum them over the whole space-time domain. 14 i=1 η 2 i. 18

21 Step 3. Mark The edges and elements for the refinement are specified by using the a posteriori error indicator and by choosing subsets M K T h such that the following bulk criterion is satisfied for the given marking parameter θ: θ K T h η K 2 K M K η K 2. Step 4. Refine The marked elements are refined by longest edge bisection, where the elements of the marked edges are refined by bisection. Step 5. Return to Step 1 on the new mesh to update the solutions, until the error estimators are less than the given tolerance value Tol. 5.1 Example 1 We first consider the following transport of a rotating Gaussian pulse example given in [13] with only lower bound, i.e., u a =. Fu et al. use this example in their analysis of the normresidual based estimator in combination with a characteristic finite element approximation. The problem data are given by Ω=[.5,.5] 2, T = 1, ε=1 4, β= x 2,x 1 T, and ω=1. The corresponding analytical solutions are given by yx,t= 2σ2 2σ 2 exp 4tε px,t=, { 1/2, x1 x zx,t= 2 >,, x 1 x 2, x 1 x 2 x 2 y 2 2σ 2 4tε u d x,t=sinπt/2sinpix 1 sinpix 2 z, ux,t=max,u d p, α where the center x,y, the standard deviation σ 2 =.447, and x 1 = x 1 costx 2 sint, x 2 = x 2 cost x 1 sint. The source f and the desired state functions are taken as f = u and y d = y, respectively. The optimal control problem exhibits a strong jump discontinuity introduced by the desired control u d x,t. Figure 1 shows that a high density of vertices are distributed along x 1 x 2 =. By using the a posteriori error indicators η u 23 or η M u 53 of the control variable, we pick out the discontinuity caused by the desired control u d x,t and construct an optimal adaptive mesh to obtain a better accuracy for the control as shown in Figure 2 with adaptive parameter θ =.35., 19

22 Figure 1: Example 5.1: Adaptively refined meshes for different values of x,y, i.e., left -.25,, middle,, right.25,.25, at t = 1 using the primal-dual active set strategy. The number of refinement steps and vertices are 9,4224, 1,3615, and 9,4728 from left to right with adaptive parameter θ = State 1 1 Adjoint Control L 2 Error PDAS Adaptive PDAS Uniform MY Adaptive MY Uniform L 2 Error Number of vertices PDAS Adaptive PDAS Uniform MY Adaptive MY Uniform L 2 Error Number of vertices PDAS Adaptive PDAS Uniform MY Adaptive MY Uniform Number of vertices Figure 2: Example 5.1: Global errors of the state, adjoint and control in the L 2,T ;L 2 Ω norm withx,y =,. As the state y exhibits different regularity, we make experiments for different values of the center point such as x,y {.25,,,,.25,.25}. For all cases, we obtain a higher density of vertices in the neighborhood of x 1, x 2 = x,y as shown in Figure 1. Therefore, the adaptive meshes in Figure 1 show that the a posteriori error estimators provided in Section 3 pick out the regions well, where more refinements are needed. Figure 2 displays the summation of the L 2,T;L 2 Ω errors for each time step for the state, adjoint and control variables atx,y =,, obtained using the primal-dual active set strategy and the Moreau-Yosida regularization. For both approaches, the errors on adaptively refined meshes are decreasing faster than the errors on uniformly refined meshes. Especially, we obtain a better convergence result for the adaptive implementation of the Moreau-Yosida approach as shown in Figure 2. 2

23 Figure 3: Example 5.1: The computed state left and control right on an adaptively refined mesh with 3,618 vertices by using the Moreau-Yosida regularization for x,y =, at t = 1 after 1 refinement steps. Figure 4: Example 5.1: GMRES iterations for three different refinement levels. A blocktriangular preconditioner was used and the stopping criterion is set to 1 4 for the relative preconditioned residual. 21

24 Figure 3 shows the computed solutions on an adaptively refined mesh with 3,618 vertices by using the Moreau-Yosida regularization forx,y =, at t = 1 after 1 refinement steps. We conclude that substantial computing work can be saved by using efficient adaptive meshes for both approaches and the Moreau-Yosida technique captures the errors of the control better than the primal-dual active set strategy. Additionally, our approach is also amendable by efficient preconditioning strategies such as the ones given in [28, 29] where an iterative method of Krylov subspace type is combined with efficient and robust Schur complement approaches. Figure 4 shows the iteration numbers of GMRES with a block-triangular preconditioner for three consecutive stages of refinement and the associated systems within the Newton method. 5.2 Example 2 We set up our second example according to Ω=[ 1,1] 2, T =.5, ε=1 5, and β=2,3 T, and ω=.1. The source function f and the desired state y d are computed by using the following analytical solutions: yx,t=16sinπtx 1 1 x 1 x 2 1 x 2 [ π arctan 2 1 ε 16 x x ] 2, 2 px,t=, u d x,t=sinπtsin π 2 x 1sin π 2 x 2, ux,t=max,min.5,u d p, α Figure 5: Example 5.2: Adaptively refined mesh with vertices at t =.5 after 6 refinement steps with θ=.55 by using the primal-dual active set strategy. 22

Figure 7: Example 5.2: The computed state left and control right on an adaptively refined mesh with 3.34 vertices by using the Moreau-Yosida regularization at t =.5 after 6 refinement steps with θ=.55. The optimal state exhibits an interior layer depending on the diffusion parameter ε. Also, it is a hump changing its height in the course of the time. Figure 5 shows a high density of vertices being distributed along the interior layer and contact set. It again demonstrates that the error indicators proposed in Section 3 work well. The global L 2,T;L 2 Ω errors of the state, adjoint, and the control variables, obtained using both approaches, are given in Figure 6. We here only present the results of the primaldual active set strategy on the uniform meshes for the state and adjoint, since the results for both approaches are quite similar. The Moreau-Yosida approach especially produces better 23

26 convergence results for the control variable. Finally, Figure 7 exhibits the computed solutions of the state and control, obtained by using the Moreau-Yosida approach, on an adaptive mesh with 3.34 vertices after 6 refinement steps with the adaptive parameter θ = Conclusions We discuss the optimal control problem governed by transient convection diffusion equations, discretized by the symmetric interior penalty Galerkin SIPG method in space and the standard backward Euler in time. In order to handle control constraints, we apply the primal-dual active set strategy and the Moreau-Yosida-based regularization. For both approaches, we propose error estimators to guide the mesh refinement. Numerical results show that substantial computing work can be saved by using efficient adaptive meshes for both approaches and the Moreau-Yosida technique captures the errors of the control better than the PDAS strategy.
