Abstract:

We consider the sliding mode control (SMC) problem for a diffuse interface tumor growth model coupling a Cahn-Hilliard equation with a reaction-diffusion equation perturbed by a maximal monotone nonlinearity. We prove existence and regularity of strong solutions and, under further assumptions, a uniqueness result. Then, we show that the chosen SMC law forces the system to reach within finite time a sliding manifold that we chose in order that the tumor phase remains constant in time.
