Abstract We investigate a P 1 P_{1} finite element method for an elliptic distributed optimal control problem with pointwise state constraints and a state equation that includes advective/convective and reactive terms. The convergence of this method can be established for general polygonal/polyhedral domains that are not necessarily convex. The discrete problem is a strictly convex quadratic program with box constraints that can be solved efficiently by a primal-dual active set algorithm.
