Observable symmetry for spacetime observability of wave equations on the interval
Abstract
Following the work [27], we further study spacetime observability for the wave equation on a one-dimensional interval. The main task is to characterize the observable symmetry condition (OSC) under both Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions, which is more complex than the torus setting due to boundary reflection, and to discuss the relation between OSC under different settings. We prove that OSC, together with the geometric control condition (GCC), is necessary and sufficient for observability. We also provide a necessary and sufficient condition for the related unique continuation property.
