Abstract: Abstract In this chapter we extend the discussion initiated in Chap. 4 on the controllability of semilinear parabolic PDEs to the case of the 1-D semilinear reaction-diffusion equation, assuming that it is again equipped with the static spatially averaged control of type ( 1.29 ). We will prove several results on the approximate controllability of this equation by linking them to the regularity and structure of the nonlinear term (which can also be superlinear). The obtained results are well posed in terms of the “actual steering” of the system at hand, even if it admits multiple (i.e., nonunique) solutions.
