We study a new class of ergodic backward stochastic differential equations (EBSDEs for short) which is linked with semi-linear Neumann type boundary value problems related to ergodic phenomenas. The particularity of these problems is that…
We derive novel results on the ergodic theory of irreducible, aperiodic Markov chains. We show how to optimally steer the network flow to a stationary distribution over a finite or infinite time horizon. Optimality is with respect to an…
We show that elements of control theory, together with an application of Harris' ergodic theorem, provide an alternate method for showing exponential convergence to a unique stationary measure for certain classes of networks of…
We study the asymptotic relations between certain singular and constrained control problems for one-dimensional diffusions with both discounted and ergodic objectives. By constrained control problems we mean that controlling is allowed only…
This paper studies maximisation of an average-cost-per-unit-time ergodic functional over impulse strategies controlling a Feller-Markov process. The uncontrolled process is assumed to be ergodic but, unlike the extant literature, the…
In this paper we study by probabilistic techniques the convergence of the value function for a two-scale, infinite-dimensional, stochastic controlled system as the ratio between the two evolution speeds diverges. The value function is…
We establish the existence (and in an appropriate sense uniqueness) of Markovian solutions for ergodic BSDEs under a novel monotonicity condition. Our monotonicity condition allows us to prove existence even when the driver f has arbitrary…
We introduce and solve a new type of quadratic backward stochastic differential equation systems defined in an infinite time horizon, called \emph{ergodic BSDE systems}. Such systems arise naturally as candidate solutions to characterize…
Heterogeneous diffusion processes can be well described by an overdamped Langevin equation with space-dependent diffusivity $D(x)$. We investigate the ergodic and non-ergodic behavior of these processes in an arbitrary potential well $U(x)$…
In this paper, we discuss selected adjoint approaches for the turbulent flow control. In particular, we focus on the application of adjoint solvers for the scope of noise reduction, in which flow solutions are obtained by large eddy and…
This paper investigates the near optimal control for a kind of linear stochastic control systems governed by the forward backward stochastic differential equations, where both the drift and diffusion terms are allowed to depend on controls…
In this paper we study ergodic backward stochastic differential equations (EBSDEs) dropping the strong dissipativity assumption needed in the previous work. In other words we do not need to require the uniform exponential decay of the…
In control theory, typically a nominal model is assumed based on which an optimal control is designed and then applied to an actual (true) system. This gives rise to the problem of performance loss due to the mismatch between the true model…
We consider the question of estimating the drift and the invariant density for a large class of scalar ergodic diffusion processes, based on continuous observations, in $\sup$-norm loss. The unknown drift $b$ is supposed to belong to a…
In this paper, we concern with the ergodic linear-quadratic closed-loop optimal control problems with random periodic coefficients. We put forward the random periodic mean-square exponentially stable condition, and prove the random…
We consider an optimal control problem with ergodic (long term average) reward for a McKean-Vlasov dynamics, where the coefficients of a controlled stochastic differential equation depend on the marginal law of the solution. Starting from…
It is argued that a diffusion may be ergodic even though the drift field has unbounded outward-directed parts. The discussion employs stochastic and numerical methods.
An optimal ergodic control problem (EC problem, for short) is investigated for a linear stochastic differential equation with quadratic cost functional. Constant nonhomogeneous terms, not all zero, appear in the state equation, which lead…
We study the finite-horizon optimal control problem with quadratic functionals for an established fluid-structure interaction model. The coupled PDE system under investigation comprises a parabolic (the fluid) and a hyperbolic (the solid)…
