Title: Boundary null-controllability of 1d linearized compressible
Navier-Stokes
System by one control force.

Abstract: In the first part of the talk, we introduce the concept of
controllability of Differential Equations. Then we give some examples in
finite (ODE) and infinite dimensional(PDE) contexts. We recall the
controllability results of the Transport and Heat equation.
In the second part of the talk, we consider compressible Navier-Stokes
equations in one dimension, linearized around a constant steady state
$(Q_0, V_0 ) $, with $Q_ 0 > 0, V 0 >0 $. It is a Coupled system of
transport and heat type equations. We study the boundary
null-controllability of this linearized system in the interval $(0,1)$
when a Dirichlet control function is acting either only on the density
or only on the velocity component at one end of the interval.
We obtain null controllability using one boundary control in the space
${H}^s_{per}(0,1)\times L^2(0,1)$ for any $s>\frac{1}{2}$ provided the
time $T>1$, where ${H}_{per}^s(0,1)$ denotes the Sobolev space of
periodic functions. The proof is based on spectral analysis and on
solving a mixed parabolic-hyperbolic moments problem and a parabolic
hyperbolic joint Ingham-type inequality.
