We consider the impulse control of Levy processes under the infinite horizon, discounted cost criterion. Our motivating example is the cash management problem in which a controller is charged a fixed plus proportional cost for adding to or…

We propose a unifying additive theory for standard conventions in Combinatorial Game Theory, including normal-, mis\`ere- and scoring-play, studied by Berlekamp, Conway, Dorbec, Ettinger, Guy, Larsson, Milley, Neto, Nowakowski, Renault,…

In [16], under mild conditions, a Wiener-Hopf type factorization is derived for the exponential functional of proper L\'evy processes. In this paper, we extend this factorization by relaxing a finite moment assumption as well as by…

We consider stochastic systems involving general -- non-Gaussian and asymmetric -- stable processes. The random quantities, either a stochastic force or a waiting time in a random walk process, explicitly depend on the position. A…

This paper studies the relation between equilibria in single-period, discrete-time and continuous-time mean field game models. First, for single-period mean field games, we establish the existence of equilibria and then prove the…

The aim of this paper is twofold. First, we extend the results of [33] concerning the existence and uniqueness of second-order reflected 2BSDEs to the case of two obstacles. Under some regularity assumptions on one of the barriers, similar…

We study the (weak) equilibrium problem arising from the problem of optimally stopping a one-dimensional diffusion subject to an expectation constraint on the time until stopping. The weak equilibrium problem is realized with a set of…

We study Dynkin games governed by a nonlinear $\mathbb E^f$-expectation on a finite interval $[0,T]$, with payoff c\`adl\`ag processes $L,U$ of class (D) which are not imposed to satisfy (weak) Mokobodzki's condition - the existence of a…

We consider minimization problems for curves of measure, with kinetic and potential energy and a congestion penalization, as in the functionals that appear in Mean Field Games with a variational structure. We prove L infinity regularity…

In this paper, we study the $m$-states optimal switching problem in finite horizon, when the switching cost functions are arbitrary and can be positive or negative. This has an economic incentive in terms of central evaluation in cases…

We present Dyve, a dynamic process verifier that enhances reasoning error detection in large language models by integrating fast and slow thinking, inspired by Kahneman's Systems Theory. Dyve adaptively applies immediate token-level…

The sero-sum stopping game for the stochastic sequences has been formulated in late sixties of the twenty century by Dynkin (1969). The formulation had the assumption about separability of decision moment of the players which simplified the…

We study coordination mechanisms for Scheduling Games (with unrelated machines). In these games, each job represents a player, who needs to choose a machine for its execution, and intends to complete earliest possible. Our goal is to design…

This paper is devoted to studying the average optimality in continuous-time Markov decision processes with fairly general state and action spaces. The criterion to be maximized is expected average rewards. The transition rates of underlying…

We suppose that a L\'evy process is observed at discrete time points. Starting from an asymptotically minimax family of estimators for the continuous part of the L\'evy Khinchine characteristics, i.e., the covariance, we derive a…
