Trilinos is a community-developed, open-source software framework that facilitates building large-scale, complex, multiscale, multiphysics simulation code bases for scientific and engineering problems. Since the Trilinos framework has undergone substantial changes to support new applications and new hardware architectures, this document is an update to ``An Overview of the Trilinos project'' by Heroux et al. (ACM Transactions on Mathematical Software, 31(3):397-423, 2005). It describes the design of Trilinos, introduces its new organization in product areas, and highlights established and new features available in Trilinos. Particular focus is put on the modernized software stack based on the Kokkos ecosystem to deliver performance portability across heterogeneous hardware architectures. This paper also outlines the organization of the Trilinos community and the contribution model to help onboard interested users and contributors.

We develop a structure-preserving solution framework for the optimal control of the time-dependent Maxwell's equations. Building on a well-posedness theory for a weak form of the forward problem, we first analyze a forward solver that couples Nédélec and Raviart--Thomas finite elements with Crank--Nicolson time stepping. The solver preserves the de~Rham structure, enforces a discrete Gauss law, exactly satisfies a per-time-step energy balance, and converges to the weak solution under low regularity assumptions on the problem data, which are dictated by the optimal control setting. To control the Maxwell system, we add the curl of a space-time current density as a source to Ampére's law. The curl form yields charge conservation without auxiliary constraints. We prove the well-posedness and continuity of the control-to-state map, derive the adjoint system and a gradient representation for a tracking-type objective functional, and formulate a discrete optimization scheme that inherits structure preservation from the forward solver. Our discrete stationarity conditions are consistent with their continuous counterparts, and the discrete optimal controls converge, with mesh and time refinements, to the continuous optima. We demonstrate the merits of our optimal control formulation and the theoretical developments by numerically solving a series of source-cloaking model problems.
