We study in this paper a control problem in a space of random variables. We show that its Hamilton Jacobi Bellman equation is related to the Master equation in Mean field theory. P.L. Lions in [14,15] introduced the Hilbert space of square…

We propose a new approach to studying classical solutions of the Bellman equation and Master equation for mean field type control problems, using a novel form of the "lifting" idea introduced by P.-L. Lions. Rather than studying the usual…

This paper deals with a family of stochastic control problems in Hilbert spaces which arises in typical applications (such as boundary control and control of delay equations with delay in the control) and for which is difficult to apply the…

We extend the work \cite{bensoussan2019control} by two of the coauthors, which dealt with a deterministic control problem for which the Hilbert space could be generic and investigated a novel form of the `lifting' technique proposed by P.…

We consider a general class of stochastic optimal control problems, where the state process lives in a real separable Hilbert space and is driven by a cylindrical Brownian motion and a Poisson random measure; no special structure is imposed…
