The Banach-Picard iteration is widely used to find fixed points of locally contractive (LC) maps. This paper extends the Banach-Picard iteration to distributed settings; specifically, we assume the map of which the fixed point is sought to…

We consider a diffusive model for optimally distributing dividends, while allowing for Knightian model ambiguity concerning the drift of the surplus process. We show that the value function is the unique solution of a non-linear…

In this paper, we prove the existence and uniqueness of solutions as well as ergodicity for McKean-Vlasov SDEs under Lyapunov conditions, in which the Lyapunov functions are defined on $\mathbb R^d\times \mathcal P_2(\mathbb R^d)$, i.e. the…
