Abstract
Optimal control problems governed by semilinear elliptic partial differential equations are considered. No Cesari-type conditions are assumed. By proving an existence theorem and the Pontryagin maximum principle of optimal ``state-control'' pairs for the corresponding relaxed problems, we establish an existence theorem of optimal pairs for the original problem.
