Abstract in another language

We analyze the sensitivity of the extremal equations that arise when concluding first order optimality conditions for time dependent optimization problems. More specifically, we consider parabolic PDEs with a linear quadratic performance criterion. We prove the solutions boundedness with respect to the right-hand side of the first order optimality condition which includes initial data. As a consequence, it can be shown that the influence of a perturbation at at certain time decays exponentially in the temporal distance to the time of perturbation. Moreover, a quantitative turnpike theorem can be derived.
