Carleman estimates for parabolic equations, a Stokes system and the Navier-Stokes equations and applications to the control problem
[ Abstract ]
We prove a new Carleman estimate for general linear second order parabolic equation with nonhomogeneous boundary conditions. On basis of this estimate we obtain an improved Carleman estimate for the Stokes system and a system of parabolic equations with a parameter which can be viewed as an approximation of the Stokes system. We will discuss the applications to the control problem for these systems.
