We consider an infinite horizon discounted optimal control problem for piecewise deterministic Markov processes, where a piecewise open-loop control acts continuously on the jump dynamics and on the deterministic flow. For this class of…

We study power utility maximization for exponential L\'evy models with portfolio constraints, where utility is obtained from consumption and/or terminal wealth. For convex constraints, an explicit solution in terms of the L\'evy triplet is…

We study the convex duality method for robust utility maximization in the presence of a random endowment. When the underlying price process is a locally bounded semimartingale, we show that the fundamental duality relation holds true for a…
