Abstract

From the extensions enumerated in Sect. 1.2, we would like to examine two important ones. Some of them are so hard to deal with that they are fully open problems, and whatever new development would have a tremendous impact. For some others, only partial (or even very partial) results are known. Yet for some other situations, extension is almost immediate. The significance of non-linear situations (either in the cost functional or in the state law) for Engineering is not covered here, and should be explored in the bibliography provided. Our motivation is purely analytical.
