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 consider an inventory system whose state is modeled by a L\'{e}vy process. There are two types of costs--the running costs and the inventory control costs. The running costs (also known as the holding/penalty costs) are incurred…

We consider a class of two-sided singular control problems. A controller either increases or decreases a given spectrally negative Levy process so as to minimize the total costs comprising of the running and control costs where the latter…

A new approach to solve the continuous-time stochastic inventory problem using the fluctuation theory of Levy processes is developed. This approach involves the recent developments of the scale function that is capable of expressing many…

In this note, we study a class of stochastic control problems where the optimal strategies are described by two parameters. These include a subset of singular control, impulse control, and two-player stochastic games. The parameters are…

We consider an inventory system in which inventory level fluctuates as a Brownian motion in the absence of control. The inventory continuously accumulates cost at a rate that is a general convex function of the inventory level, which can be…

We consider an inventory system in which inventory level fluctuates as a Brownian motion in the absence of control. The inventory continuously accumulates cost at a rate that is a general convex function of the inventory level, which can be…

A bivariate extension to Box and Jenkins (1963) feedback adjustment problem is presented in this paper. The model balances the fixed cost of making an adjustment, which is assumed independent of the magnitude of the adjustments, with the…

We study a stochastic control problem where the underlying process follows a spectrally negative L\'{e}vy process. A controller can continuously increase the process but only decrease it at independent Poisson arrival times. We show the…

We revisit the classical singular control problem of minimizing running and controlling costs. The problem arises in inventory control, as well as in healthcare management and mathematical finance. Existing studies have shown the optimality…

We consider the control of a finite dam when the input process is either spectrally positive Levy or spectrally positive Levy reflected at its infimum, using P(M,Lambda,tau) control policies. Our results extend and unify the results Bea et…

We study a zero-sum game where the evolution of a spectrally one-sided Levy process is modified by a singular controller and is terminated by the stopper. The singular controller minimizes the expected values of running, controlling and…

We revisit a stochastic control problem of optimally modifying the underlying spectrally negative Levy process. A strategy must be absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure, and the objective is to minimize the total costs…

We consider controlling the paths of a spectrally negative L\'evy process by two means: the subtraction of `taxes' when the process is at an all-time maximum, and the addition of `bailouts' which keep the value of the process above zero. We…

We consider the determination of the optimal stationary singular stochastic control of a linear diffusion for a class of average cumulative cost minimization problems arising in various financial and economic applications of stochastic…

Motivated by recent developments in risk management based on the U.S. bankruptcy code, we revisit the De Finetti's optimal dividend problem by incorporating the reorganization process and regulator's intervention documented in Chapter 11…

We analyze the optimal dividend payment problem in the dual model under constant transaction costs. We show, for a general spectrally positive L\'{e}vy process, an optimal strategy is given by a $(c_1,c_2)$-policy that brings the surplus…

We consider an optimal dividend problem with transaction costs where the surplus is modelled by a spectrally negative L\'evy process in an Omega model. n this model, the surplus is allowed to spend time below the critical ruin level, but is…

We analyze the sidewise controllability for the variable coefficients one-dimensional wave equation. The control is acting on one extreme of the string with the aim that the solution tracks a given path at the other free end. This sidewise…

Controlled one-dimensional diffusion processes, with infinitesimal variance (instead of the infinitesimal mean) depending on the control variable, are considered in an interval located on the positive half-line. The process is controlled…
