We study a stochastic optimal control problem with the state constrained to a smooth, compact domain. The control influences both the drift and a possibly degenerate, control-dependent dispersion matrix, leading to a fully nonlinear,…
This paper proposes to parameterize open loop controls in stochastic optimal control problems via suitable classes of functionals depending on the driver's path signature, a concept adopted from rough path integration theory. We rigorously…
