Please always quote using this URN: urn:nbn:de:0297-zib-10714
- We study the optimal control of a maximum-norm objective functional subject to an elliptic-type PDE and pointwise state constraints. The problem is transformed into a problem where the non-differentiable L^{\infty}-norm in the functional will be replaced by a scalar variable and additional state constraints. This problem is solved by barrier methods. We will show the existence and convergence of the central path for a class of barrier functions. Numerical experiments complete the presentation.
