Abstract
In this paper, we discuss the mixed discontinuous Galerkin (DG) finite element approximation to semilinear parabolic optimal control problems, where the discontinuous finite element method of the order r (r ≥ 0) is used for the time discretization and the Raviart–Thomas mixed finite element method of the order λ (λ ≥ 0) is used for the space discretization. For λ ≥ 0, r = 0 or 1, we derive a priori error estimates for both the control variable and the state variables. Moveover, we derive a posteriori L2(0,T;L2(Ω)) error estimates for the scalar functions, assuming that only the underlying mesh is static.
