“…For the mixed finite element approximations of optimal control problems, Chen et al have done some works on priori error estimates and superconvergence properties of mixed finite elements for optimal control problems, see [4,5,7,8]. Recently, in [22], Xing and Chen have analyzed the L ∞ -error estimates for general convex optimal control problems with the lowest order Raviart-Thomas mixed finite element methods, while the L ∞ -error estimates for quadratic optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic equations was investigated in [18].…”
