Broad area of research: Differential equation and control theory

Venue: MSB 410

Abstract:
In this talk, we address the existence of solutions for evolution hemivariational inequalities in Hilbert spaces. We begin by establishing the link between the original problem and a differential inclusion formulated with the Clarke subdifferential operator. Using this connection, we demonstrate the existence of solutions to the hemivariational inequality through the corresponding differential inclusion. The talk concludes with an application to the heat equation involving the Clarke subdifferential operator.
