    Optimal boundary control of a nonlinear diffusion equation (English)
    0 references
    The authors study an optimal control problem governed by a quasilinear parabolic equation. The control function is the heat transfer coefficient in a variational boundary condition. The authors prove the existence of an optimal control which minimizes a quadratic cost functional. The stability of the state variable with respect to the control variable is also studied.
