## scdist4 description:

### Introduction

This example is taken from [Cherednichenko et al.2008, Section 5.1]. It features a state constrained problem in which the Lagrange multiplier is given by a Dirac measure.

### Variables & Notation

#### Free Parameters

The solution is parametrized in the Tikhonov parameter $\alpha >0$.

#### Given Data

The given data is chosen in a way which admits an analytic solution. This solution is rotationally symmetric.

### Optimality System

The following optimality system for the state $y\in {H}_{0}^{1}\left(\Omega \right)$, the control $u\in {L}^{2}\left(\Omega \right)$, the adjoint state $p\in {H}_{0}^{1}\left(\Omega \right)$, and Lagrange multiplier $\mu \in \mathsc{ℳ}\left(\Omega \right)=C{\left(\overline{\Omega }\right)}^{\ast }$, given in the strong form, characterizes the unique minimizer.
