We study the problem of optimal inside control of a stochastic Volterra equation driven by a Brownian motion and a Poisson random measure. We prove a sufficient and a necessary maximum principle for the optimal control when the trader has…
The decumulation of a defined contribution (DC) pension plan is well known to be one of the hardest problems in finance. We model this decumulation challenge as an optimal stochastic control problem. The control problem is solved, at each…
We consider a singular stochastic control problem, which is called the Monotone Follower Stochastic Control Problem and give sufficient conditions for the existence and uniqueness of a local-time type optimal control. To establish this…
Fourier pricing methods such as the Carr-Madan formula or the COS method are classic tools for pricing European options for advanced models such as the Heston model. These methods require tuning parameters such as a damping factor, a…
A higher-order numerical method is presented for scalar valued, coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equations. Unlike most classical references, the forward component is not only discretized by an Euler-Maruyama approximation…
The optimal control problem of stochastic systems is commonly solved via robust or scenario-based optimization methods, which are both challenging to scale to long optimization horizons. We cast the optimal control problem of a stochastic…
In [1], we inaugurated a new area of optimal control (OC) theory that we called "periodic fractional OC theory," which was developed to find optimal ways to periodically control a fractional dynamic system. The typical mathematical…
The key difficulty to develop efficient high-order methods for integrating stochastic differential equations lies in the calculations of the multiple stochastic integrals. This letter suggests a scheme to compute the stochastic integrals…
A modified Green operator is proposed as an improvement of Fourier-based numerical schemes commonly used for computing the electrical or thermal response of heterogeneous media. Contrary to other methods, the number of iterations necessary…
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…
This article presents a general and novel approach to the automation of goal-oriented error control in the solution of nonlinear stationary finite element variational problems. The approach is based on automated linearization to obtain the…
We consider a mean-field optimal control problem for stochastic differential equations with delay driven by fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter greater than one half. Stochastic optimal control problems driven by fractional…
We provide a novel computer-assisted technique for systematically analyzing first-order methods for optimization. In contrast with previous works, the approach is particularly suited for handling sublinear convergence rates and stochastic…
This paper presents a Fourier integral pseudospectral (FIPS) method for a general class of nonlinear, periodic optimal control (OC) problems with equality and/or inequality constraints and sufficiently smooth solutions. In this scheme, the…
We consider a stochastic control model driven by a fractional Brownian motion. This model is a formal approximation to a queueing network with an on-off input process. We study stochastic control problems associated with the long-run…
Optimal control under uncertainty is a prevailing challenge for many reasons. One of the critical difficulties lies in producing tractable solutions for the underlying stochastic optimization problem. We show how advanced approximate…
In this paper, we consider a method for fast numerical computation of the Fourier transform of a slowly decaying function with given accuracy in given ranges of the frequency. In these decades, some useful formulas for the Fourier transform…
We present a strictly monotone, provably convergent two-dimensional (2D) integration method for multi-period mean-conditional value-at-risk (mean-CVaR) reward-risk stochastic control in models whose one-step increment law is specified via a…
We modify the Green operator involved in Fourier-based computational schemes in elasticity, in 2D and 3D. The new operator is derived by expressing continuum mechanics in terms of centered differences on a rotated grid. Use of the modified…
In this paper, a stochastic control problem under model uncertainty with general penalty term is studied. Two types of penalties are considered. The first one is of type f-divergence penalty treated in the general framework of a continuous…
