This paper is concerned with stochastic impulse control problems in which the running cost changes depending on the impulse control. Because of such a dependence, it brings several difficulties when the usual dynamic programming principle…
We introduce a new numerical method to approximate the solution of a finite horizon deterministic optimal control problem. We exploit two Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman PDE, arising by considering the dynamics in forward and backward time. This…
In this paper, we guarantee the existence and uniqueness (in the almost everywhere sense) of the solution to a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation with gradient constraint and a partial integro-differential operator whose L\'evy measure…
We study the Hamilton-Jacobi equation for undiscounted exit time control problems with general nonnegative Lagrangians using the dynamic programming approach. We prove theorems characterizing the value function as the unique…
A general bilinear optimal control problem subject to an infinite-dimensional state equation is considered. Polynomial approximations of the associated value function are derived around the steady state by repeated formal differentiation of…
We study a stochastic optimal control problem with the state constrained to a smooth, compact domain. The control influences both the drift and a possibly degenerate, control-dependent dispersion matrix, leading to a fully nonlinear,…
This paper proposes a new framework to model control systems in which a dynamic friction occurs. The model consists in a controlled differential inclusion with a discontinuous right hand side, which still preserves existence and uniqueness…
In this paper we study the existence of sufficiently regular representations of Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the optimal control theory with unbounded control set. We use a new method to construct representations for a wide class of…
Homogenization is studied for a nonlinear elliptic boundary-value problem with a large nonlinear potential. More specifically we are interested in the asymptotic behavior of a sequence of p-Laplacians of the form $$…
Motivated by an optimal-matching problem (Leighton-Shor) and the random-field Ising model (Aizenman-Wehr, Ding-Wirth), we consider a variational problem for graphs in $1+1$ dimension maximizing an action that is the difference of a field…
In this article we study ergodic problems in the whole space $\mathbb{R}^N$ for weakly coupled systems of viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equations with coercive right-hand sides. The Hamiltonians are assumed to have a fairly general structure and…
We present exponential error estimates and demonstrate an algebraic convergence rate for the homogenization of level-set convex Hamilton-Jacobi equations in i.i.d. random environments, the first quantitative homogenization results for these…
We investigate an optimal control problem for a diffusion whose drift and running cost are merely measurable in the state variable. Such low regularity rules out the use of Pontryagin's maximum principle and also invalidates the standard…
We perform a systematic study of optimization problems in the Wasserstein spaces that are analogs of infinite horizon, deterministic control problems. We derive necessary conditions on action minimizing paths and present a sufficient…
In this paper, we are concerned with the classical solvability of a class of second-order Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equations (HJB equations) arising from stochastic optimal control problems with linear dynamics and uniformly convex cost…
The goal of this paper is to prove a comparison principle for viscosity solutions of semilinear Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the space of probability measures. The method involves leveraging differentiability properties of the…
In this paper, we study the optimal singular controls for stochastic recursive systems, in which the control has two components: the regular control, and the singular control. Under certain assumptions, we establish the dynamic programming…
Here, we study quantitative homogenization of first-order convex Hamilton-Jacobi equations with $(u/\varepsilon)$-periodic Hamiltonians which typically appear in dislocation dynamics. Firstly, we establish the optimal convergence rate by…
We study a singular perturbation problem for second-order Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the Wasserstein space. Specifically, we characterize the behavior of the solutions as the perturbation parameter $\varepsilon$ tends to zero. The notion…
Using Talagrand's concentration inequality on the discrete cube {0,1}^m we show that given a real-valued function Z(x)on {0,1}^m that satisfies certain monotonicity conditions one can control the deviations of Z(x) above its median by a…
