For classical finite time horizon stopping problems driven by a Brownian motion \[V(t,x) = \sup_{t\leq\tau\leq0}E_{(t,x)}[g(\tau,W_{\tau})],\] we derive a new class of Fredholm type integral equations for the stopping set. For large problem…

We present a method to solve optimal stopping problems in infinite horizon for a L\'evy process when the reward function can be non-monotone. To solve the problem we introduce two new objects. Firstly, we define a random variable $\eta(x)$…
This article explores an optimal stopping problem for branching diffusion processes. It consists in looking for optimal stopping lines, a type of stopping time that maintains the branching structure of the processes under analysis. By using…
In this paper we consider an infinite time horizon risk-sensitive optimal stopping problem for a Feller--Markov process with an unbounded terminal cost function. We show that in the unbounded case an associated Bellman equation may have…
This paper considers an optimal impulse control problem of dynamical systems generated by a flow. The performance criteria are total costs over the infinite time horizon. Apart from the main performance to be minimized, there are multiple…
We solve the problem of optimal stopping of a Brownian motion subject to the constraint that the stopping time's distribution is a given measure consisting of finitely-many atoms. In particular, we show that this problem can be converted to…
This paper studies the optimal multiple-stopping problem arising in the context of the timing option to withdraw from a project in stages. The profits are driven by a general spectrally negative Levy process. This allows the model to…
Inspired by recent work of P.-L. Lions on conditional optimal control, we introduce a problem of optimal stopping under bounded rationality: the objective is the expected payoff at the time of stopping, conditioned on another event. For…
