We study the ergodic control problem for a class of controlled jump diffusions driven by a compound Poisson process. This extends the results of [SIAM J. Control Optim. 57 (2019), no. 2, 1516-1540] to running costs that are not…

The paper is a full version of the short presentation in \cite{amv17}. Ergodic control for one-dimensional controlled diffusion is tackled; both drift and diffusion coefficients may depend on a strategy which is assumed markovian. Ergodic…
