M10. Inverse and Control Problems for Evolution Equations and Variational Inequalities

In the last twenty years, the field of inverse problems has undergone rapid development. The enormous increase in computing power, together with powerful numerical methods, has made it possible to simulate real-world direct problems of growing complexity. Many applications in science and engineering lead to inverse and control problems, which in turn stimulate mathematical research e.g., on uniqueness questions and on developing stable and efficient numerical methods for solving them.

Evolution partial differential equations are frequently used to model transient processes. Variational inequalities are mathematical models used to describe a wide range of dynamic phenomena such as the evolution of physical systems, economic processes, and social dynamics. Solving inverse problems involves formulating an appropriate mathematical model that incorporates available data and unknown parameters. Various computational and mathematical techniques, such as optimization methods, regularization techniques, and numerical algorithms, have been employed to reconstruct unknown quantities and obtain a reliable solution.

The aim of this mini-symposium is the exchange of state-of-the-art knowledge in theoretical and numerical research on inverse, backward, and coefficient identification settings for (non)linear evolution problems. We would like to bring together a wide range of experts in this mini-symposium to discuss the theoretical, practical, and numerical aspects of the subject.
