We study the effects of management of the PT-symmetric part of the potential within the setting of Schr\"odinger dimer and trimer oligomer systems. This is done by rapidly modulating in time the gain/loss profile. This gives rise to a…
We discuss the optimal Markovian coupling before an exponential time of the Kolmogorov diffusion, and a class of related stochastic control problems in which the aim is to hit the origin before an exponential time. We provide a scaling…
This paper studies a kind of minimal time control problems related to the exact synchronization for a controlled linear system of parabolic equations. Each problem depends on two parameters: the bound of controls and the initial state. The…
Since the early nineties, it has been observed that the Schroedinger bridge problem can be formulated as a stochastic control problem with atypical boundary constraints. This in turn has a fluid dynamic counterpart where the flow of…
In this paper, we present a control synthesis framework for a general class of nonlinear, control-affine systems under spatiotemporal and input constraints. First, we study the problem of fixed-time convergence in the presence of input…
In this paper, we examine a stochastic linear-quadratic control problem characterized by regime switching and Poisson jumps. All the coefficients in the problem are random processes adapted to the filtration generated by Brownian motion and…
In this note, we give the stochastic maximum principle for optimal control of stochastic PDEs in the general case (when the control domain need not be convex and the diffusion coefficient can contain a control variable).
In this paper, we consider the 3D Navier-Stokes-Voigt (NSV) equations with nonlinear damping $|u|^{r-1}u, r\in[1,\infty)$ in bounded and space-periodic domains. We formulate an optimal control problem of minimizing the curl of the velocity…
We consider the optimal control problem of stochastic evolution equations in a Hilbert space under a recursive utility, which is described as the solution of a backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE). A very general maximum…
The purpose of this article is to study a new problem of stochastic control, related to Walsh's spider diffusion, named: stochastic optimal scattering control. The optimal scattering control of the spider diffusion at the junction point is…

In this paper, we investigate the optimal control problems for stochastic differential equations (SDEs in short) of mean-field type with jump processes. The control variable is allowed to enter into both diffusion and jump terms. This…
We consider both discrete and continuous control problems constrained by a fixed budget of some resource, which may be renewed upon entering a preferred subset of the state space. In the discrete case, we consider both deterministic and…
Following Demidovich's concept and definition of convergent systems, we analyze the optimal nonlinear damping control, recently proposed [1] for the second-order systems. Targeting the problem of output regulation, correspondingly tracking…
Optimal control of the singular nonlinear parabolic PDE which is a distributional formulation of multidimensional and multiphase Stefan-type free boundary problem is analyzed. Approximating sequence of finite-dimensional optimal control…
The optimal control problem for discrete-time systems with colored multiplicative noise is discussed in this paper. The problem will be more difficult to deal with than the case of white noise due to the correlation of the adjoining state.…
