We investigate the discrete-time stochastic linear quadratic control problem for a population of cooperative agents under the hard equality constraint on total control inputs, motivated by demand response in renewable energy systems. We…
This paper introduces a generalization of the well-known Riccati recursion for solving the discrete-time equality-constrained linear quadratic optimal control problem. The recursion can be used to compute the solutions as well as optimal…
In this paper, our goal is to study fundamental foundations of linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) control problems for stochastic linear time-invariant systems via Lagrangian duality of semidefinite programming (SDP) problems. In particular,…
We consider some certain nonlinear perturbations of the stochastic linear-quadratic optimization problems and study the connections between their solutions and the corresponding Markovian backward stochastic diferential equations (BSDEs).…
We study a finite-dimensional continuous-time optimal control problem on finite horizon for a controlled diffusion driven by Brownian motion, in the linear-quadratic case. We admit stochastic coefficients, possibly depending on an…
It is a longstanding unsolved problem to characterize the optimal feedbacks for general SLQs (i.e., stochastic linear quadratic control problems) with random coefficients in infinite dimensions; while the same problem but in finite…
This paper addresses an open problem in the area of linear quadratic optimal control. We consider the regular, infinite-horizon, stability-modulo-a-subspace, indefinite linear quadratic problem under the assumption that the dynamics are…

This paper presents a state and state-input constrained variant of the discrete-time iterative Linear Quadratic Regulator (iLQR) algorithm, with linear time-complexity in the number of time steps. The approach is based on a projection of…
We consider a general class of stochastic optimal control problems, where the state process lives in a real separable Hilbert space and is driven by a cylindrical Brownian motion and a Poisson random measure; no special structure is imposed…
Inspired by the successes of stochastic algorithms in the training of deep neural networks and the simulation of interacting particle systems, we propose and analyze a framework for randomized time-splitting in linear-quadratic optimal…
In this paper, we study the sensitivity of discrete-time dynamic programs with nonlinear dynamics and objective to perturbations in the initial conditions and reference parameters. Under uniform controllability and boundedness assumptions…
This paper investigates a class of unified stochastic linear quadratic Gaussian (LQG) social optima problems involving a large number of weakly-coupled interactive agents under a {generalized} setting. For each individual agent, the control…

In this paper we investigate possible approaches to study general time-inconsistent optimization problems without assuming the existence of optimal strategy. This leads immediately to the need to refine the concept of time-consistency as…
A study of the linear quadratic (LQ) control problem on a finite time interval for a model equation in Hilbert spaces which comprehends the memory of the inputs was performed recently by the authors. The outcome included a closed-loop…
This paper presents a method to approximately solve stochastic optimal control problems in which the cost function and the system dynamics are polynomial. For stochastic systems with polynomial dynamics, the moments of the state can be…

In this paper, we propose a new Robust Nonlinear Quadratic Gaussian (RNQG) controller based on State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) scheme for continuous-time nonlinear systems. Existing controllers do not account for combined noise and…
A classical approach for solving discrete time nonlinear control on a finite horizon consists in repeatedly minimizing linear quadratic approximations of the original problem around current candidate solutions. While widely popular in many…
