\subsection{Backstepping for boundary control in PDEs}
\emph{Backstepping} consists in transforming a system into another one, called \emph{target system}, which has the desired stability properties. In order to study, we will be considering the following reaction-diffusion equation:
\begin{equation}\label{ICT:reaction_diffusion}
\begin{cases}
\partial_t x=x_{zz}+\lambda x & \text{in } (0,T)\times (0,1) \\
x(t,0)=0 & \text{in } (0,T) \\
x(t,1)=u(t) & \text{in } (0,T)
\end{cases}
\end{equation}
and we assume that $\lambda>0$ is large enough such that the system is unstable (the eigenvalues are of the form $\lambda-n^2\pi^2$ with $n\in\NN$).

The first step is to choose a target system such that the origin is exponentially (or asymptotically) stable. We will consider the following target system:
\begin{equation}\label{ICT:target_system}
\begin{cases}
\partial_t w=w_{zz} & \text{in } (0,T)\times (0,1) \\
w(t,0)=0 & \text{in } (0,T) \\
w(t,1)=0 & \text{in } (0,T)
\end{cases}
\end{equation}
\begin{proposition}
The system \mcref{ICT:target_system} is exponentially stable for the $L^2$ norm.
\end{proposition}
\begin{proof}
We need to find a Lyapunov functional $V$ such that $\dot{V}\leq -\alpha V$ for some $\alpha>0$. We take $V(t)=\int_0^1 w(t,z)^2\dd z$. Then:
\begin{multline*}
\dot{V} = 2\int_0^1 w(t,z)w_t(t,z)\dd z=2\int_0^1 w(t,z)w_{zz}(t,z)\dd z \\
= -2\int_0^1 w_z(t,z)^2\dd z\leq -\alpha V
\end{multline*}
for some $\alpha >0$, due to \mnameref{ATFAPDE:poincare_ineq}.
\end{proof}
Next step is to find a backstepping transformation $w=T(x)$ and the invertible operator $T^{-1}$. We will consider the following transformation:
\begin{equation}\label{ICT:backstepping_transformation}
w(z,t)=x(z,t)-\int_0^z K(z,y) x(y,t)\dd y
\end{equation}
where $K$ is a kernel yet to be determined.
\begin{proposition}
Let $f:[a,b]\to\CC$ be continuous and $K:[a,b]^2\to \CC$ be a bounded function. Then, the integral equation:
$$
f(t) = \varphi(t)-\int_a^b K(t,s)\varphi(s) \dd s,\qquad t\in [a,b]
$$
admits a unique solution $\varphi\in \mathcal{C}([a,b])$. Furthermore, there exists $\ell :[a,b]^2\to \CC$ bounded such that:
$$
\varphi(t)=f(t)-\int_a^t \ell(t,s)f(s)\dd s, \qquad t\in [a,b]
$$
\end{proposition}
Thus, our transformation is in \mcref{ICT:backstepping_transformation} is invertible.

Finally, we need to define our control law. Imposing $w_z(1,t)=0$ in \mcref{ICT:backstepping_transformation} we get:
\begin{gather*}
0=w_z(1,t)=x_z(1,t)-K(1,1)x(1,t)-\int_0^1 K_z(1,y)x(y,t)\dd y\\
u(t)=K(1,1)x(1,t)+\int_0^1 K_z(1,y)x(y,t)\dd y
\end{gather*}
So, we are left to find if a suitable $K$ exists. Recall that the condition $w(1,t)=0$ is automatically satisfied. We need to make use of the PDE of $w$. Using \mcref{ICT:backstepping_transformation} to compute $w_t$ and $w_{zz}$, and equating both equations it suffices to find $K$ such that:
$$
\begin{cases}
-2\dv{}{z}K(z,z)=\lambda\implies K(z,z)=-\frac{\lambda}{2}z \\
K_{zz}=K_{yy}+\lambda K \\
K(z,0)=0
\end{cases}
$$
which has a unique solution given by:
$$
K(z,y)=-\lambda y\frac{I_1(\sqrt{\lambda(z^2-y^2)})}{\sqrt{\lambda(z^2-y^2)}}
$$
where $I_1$ is the modified Bessel function of the first kind of order $1$.
