ABSTRACT

In this paper we present a study of the exact controllability, in the boundary, of the generalized telegraph equation

(K  (x,t)y')'+ K  (x,t)y'+ K (x,t)y-  sum   n-@-(a (x,t) @y-)= 0 in Q,
  1          2        3       i,j=1 @xi  ij    @xj

where Q  is the finite cylinder _O_ ×]0,T[  and O  is a bounded domain in  n
R  . The result is obtained by the HUM (Hilbert Uniqueness Method), method introduced by J. L. Lions (1988).
