Relaxation of optimal control problems in 𝖫 𝗉 -spaces
ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, Tome 6 (2001), pp. 73-95.

We consider control problems governed by semilinear parabolic equations with pointwise state constraints and controls in an L p -space (p<∞). We construct a correct relaxed problem, prove some relaxation results, and derive necessary optimality conditions.
