In this paper we consider multiple saddle point problems with block tridiagonal Hessian in a Hilbert space setting. Well-posedness and the related issue of preconditioning are discussed. We give a characterization of all block structured norms which ensure well-posedness of multiple saddle point problems as a helpful tool for constructing block diagonal preconditioners. We subsequently apply our findings to a general class of PDE-constrained optimal control problems containing a regularization parameter α and derive α-robust preconditioners for the corresponding optimality systems. Finally, we demonstrate the generality of our approach with two optimal control problems related to the heat and the wave equation, respectively. Preliminary numerical experiments support the feasibility of our method.
