文摘This paper investigates the finite element approximation of a class of parameter estimation problems which is the form of performance as the optimal control problems governed by bilinear parabolic equations,where the state and co-state are discretized by piecewise linear functions and control is approximated by piecewise constant functions.The authors derive some a priori error estimates for both the control and state approximations.Finally,the numerical experiments verify the theoretical results.
