Abstract

We study a hierarchical control problem for stochastic parabolic equations involving gradient terms. We employ the Stackelberg-Nash strategy with two leaders and two followers. The leaders are responsible for selecting the policy targeting null controllability, while the followers solve a bi-objective optimal control problem which consists of maintaining the solution process close to prefixed targets. Once the Nash equilibrium is determined, the problem reduces to achieving null controllability of a coupled forward-backward stochastic system. To solve this problem, via Carleman estimates, we establish a suitable observability inequality. Subsequently, we achieve the desired controllability result.
