This paper investigates a class of generalized mean-reflected McKean-Vlasov type backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs). Our new framework combines a mean reflection constraint on the solution's expectation with a generalized…
This paper addresses reflected backward stochastic differential equations (RBSDE hereafter) that take the form of \begin{eqnarray*} \begin{cases} dY_t=f(t,Y_t, Z_t)d(t\wedge\tau)+Z_tdW_t^{\tau}+dM_t-dK_t,\quad Y_{\tau}=\xi, Y\geq…
We give necessary and sufficient condition for existence and uniqueness of $\mathbb{L}^{p}$-solutions of reflected BSDEs with continuous barrier, generator monotone with respect to $y$ and Lipschitz continuous with respect to $z$, and with…
We prove existence and uniqueness for semimartingale reflecting diffusions in 2-dimensional piecewise smooth domains with varying, oblique directions of reflection on each "side", under geometric, easily verifiable conditions. Our…
We construct a Hunt process that can be described as an isotropic $\alpha$-stable L\'evy process reflected from the complement of a bounded open Lipschitz set. In fact, we introduce a new analytic method for concatenating Markov processes.…
We study infinite-horizon robust Markov decision processes (MDPs) on continuous state spaces with structured rectangular ambiguity set. The proposed ambiguity set falls within the convex hull of unknown generating kernels. We utilize the…
Mathematical mean-field approaches have been used in many fields, not only in Physics and Chemistry, but also recently in Finance, Economics, and Game Theory. In this paper we will study a new special mean-field problem in a purely…
In this paper we investigate the tractability of robust Markov Decision Processes (RMDPs) under various structural assumptions on the uncertainty set. Surprisingly, we show that in all generality (i.e. without any assumption on the…
This paper is devoted to the study of reflected Stochastic Differential Equations with jumps when the constraint is not on the paths of the solution but acts on the law of the solution. This type of reflected equations have been introduced…
We present a multiple-scattering model for the effective refractive index of an arbitrarily dense suspension of forward-scattering particles. The model provides a very simple formula for the effective refractive index of such a suspension…
We express the optimization of entanglement witnesses for arbitrary bipartite states in terms of a class of convex optimization problems known as Robust Semidefinite Programs (RSDP). We propose, using well known properties of RSDP, several…
We prove some new results on reflected BSDEs and doubly reflected BSDEs driven by a multi-dimensional RCLL martingale. The goal is to develop a general multi-asset framework encompassing a wide spectrum of nonlinear financial models,…
The aim of this short note is to fill in a gap in our earlier paper [16] on 2BSDEs with reflections, and to explain how to correct the subsequent results in the second paper [15]. We also provide more insight on the properties of 2RBSDEs,…
A dynamical system is strongly robustly safe provided that it remains safe in the presence of a continuous and positive perturbation, named robustness margin, added to both the argument and the image of the right-hand side (the dynamics).…
In this paper, we compare several representative barrier-like conditions from the literature for infinite-horizon reach-avoid verification of stochastic discrete-time systems. Our comparison examines both their theoretical properties and…

Several recent results provide theoretical insights into the phenomena of adversarial examples. Existing results, however, are often limited due to a gap between the simplicity of the models studied and the complexity of those deployed in…
