Controllability of a one-dimensional fractional heat equation: theoretical and numerical aspects

Abstract We analyse the controllability problem for a one-dimensional heat equation involving the fractional Laplacian $(-d_x^{\,2})^{s}$ on the interval $(-1,1)$. Using classical results and techniques, we show that, acting from an open subset $\omega \subset (-1,1)$, the problem is null-controllable for $s>1/2$ and that for $s\leqslant 1/2$ we only have …
