The aim of this work is to study the semidiscrete finite element discretization for a class of semilinear parabolic integrodifferential optimal control problems. We derive a posteriori error estimates inL2(J;L2(Ω))-norm andL2(J;H1(Ω))-norm for both the control and coupled state approximations. Such estimates can be used to construct reliable adaptive finite element approximation for semilinear parabolic integrodifferential optimal control problem. Furthermore, we introduce an adaptive algorithm to guide the mesh refinement. Finally, a numerical example is given to demonstrate the theoretical results.

In this paper, we investigate a mixed discontinuous Galerkin approximation of time dependent convection diffusion optimal control problem with control constraints based on the combination of a mixed finite element method for the elliptic part and a discontinuous Galerkin method for the hyperbolic part of the state equation. The control variable is approximated by variational discretization approach. A priori error estimates of the state, adjoint state, and control are derived for both semidiscrete scheme and fully discrete scheme. Numerical example is given to show the effectiveness of the numerical scheme.
