In this study, the problem of finite-time stability and boundedness for parabolic singular distributed parameter systems in the sense of [Formula: see text] norm is investigated. First, two new results on [Formula: see text] norm-based finite-time stability and finite-time boundedness for above-mentioned systems, inspired by the light of partial differential equations theory and Lyapunov functional method, are presented. Then, some sufficient conditions of [Formula: see text] norm-based finite-time stability and boundedness are established by virtue of differential inequalities and linear matrix inequalities. Furthermore, the distributed state feedback controllers are constructed to guarantee the [Formula: see text] norm-based finite-time stable and bounded of the closed-loop singular distributed parameter systems. Finally, numerical simulations on a specific numerical example and the building temperature control system equipped with air conditioning are given to demonstrate the validity of the proposed methods.
