Abstract

In this paper, we provide a numerical scheme—RT mixed FEM/DG scheme for the constrained optimal control problem governed by convection dominated diffusion equations. A priori and a posteriori error estimates are obtained for both the state, the co-state and the control. The adaptive mesh refinement can be applied indicated by a posteriori error estimator provided in this paper. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the theoretical analysis.
