We study a stochastic control problem for nonlinear systems governed by stochastic differential equations with irregular drift. The drift coefficient is assumed to decompose as $b(t,x,a)=b_1(t,x)+b_2(x)b_3(t,a)$, where $b_1$ is bounded and…
Boundary value problems in ODEs arise in modelling many physical situations from microscale to mega scale. Such two-point boundary value problems (BVPs) are complex and often possess no analytical closed form solutions. So, one has to rely…
Motivated by the fact that both the classical and quantum description of nature rest on causality and a variational principle, we develop a novel and highly versatile discretization prescription for classical initial value problems (IVPs).…
