This paper investigates a model-free solution to the stochastic linear quadratic regulation (LQR) problem for linear discrete-time systems with both multiplicative and additive noises. We formulate the stochastic LQR problem as a nonconvex…
We consider a control problem for a finite-state Markov system whose performance is evaluated by a coherent Markov risk measure. For each policy, the risk of a state is approximated by a function of its features, thus leading to a…
We provide a technique to obtain provably optimal control sequences for quantum systems under the influence of time-correlated multiplicative control noise. Utilizing the circuit-level noise model introduced in [Phys. Rev. Research 3,…
In this article, two methods for solving mean-field type optimal control problems are proposed and investigated. The two methods are iterative methods: at each iteration, a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation is solved, for a terminal…
This paper studies the numerical simulation of the solution to the McKean-Vlasov equation with common noise. We begin by discretizing the solution in time using the Euler scheme, followed by spatial discretization through the particle…
We propose two algorithms for the solution of the optimal control of ergodic McKean-Vlasov dynamics. Both algorithms are based on approximations of the theoretical solutions by neural networks, the latter being characterized by their…
This paper, the second of a two-part series, presents a method for mean-field feedback stabilization of a swarm of agents on a finite state space whose time evolution is modeled as a continuous time Markov chain (CTMC). The resulting…
We provide an exhaustive treatment of Linear-Quadratic control problems for a class of stochastic Volterra equations of convolution type, whose kernels are Laplace transforms of certain signed matrix measures which are not necessarily…
We introduce tensor numerical techniques for solving optimal control problems constrained by elliptic operators in $\mathbb{R}^d$, $d=2,3$, with variable coefficients, which can be represented in a low rank separable form. We construct a…
We show that if an efficient classical representation of the dynamics exists, optimal control problems on many-body quantum systems can be solved efficiently with finite precision. We show that the size of the space of parameters necessary…
We show well-posedness for McKean--Vlasov equations with rough common noise and progressively measurable coefficients. Our results are valid under natural regularity assumptions on the coefficients, in agreement with the respective…
We study a new class of McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations (SDEs), possibly with common noise, applying the theory of time-inhomogeneous polynomial processes. The drift and volatility coefficients of these SDEs depend on the…
In this paper, we first prove that the mean-field stochastic linear quadratic (MFSLQ for short) control problem with random coefficients has a unique optimal control and derive a preliminary stochastic maximum principle to characterize this…
The purpose of this paper is to provide a detailed probabilistic analysis of the optimal control of nonlinear stochastic dynamical systems of the McKean Vlasov type. Motivated by the recent interest in mean field games, we highlight the…
We consider a novel McKean--Vlasov control problem with contagion through killing of particles and common noise. Each particle is killed at an exponential rate according to an intensity process that increases whenever the particle is…
In this manuscript, we study a class of linear-quadratic (LQ) mean field control problems with a common noise and their corresponding $N$-particle systems. The mean field control problems considered are not standard LQ mean field control…
A finite-state Markov chain is introduced in the noise terms of the three-dimensional stochastic Navier-Stokes equations in order to allow for transitions between two types of multiplicative noises. We call such systems as stochastic…
Motivated by applications arising in networked systems, this work examines controlled regime-switching systems that stem from a mean-variance formulation. A main point is that the switching process is a hidden Markov chain. An additional…
In this article, a globally convergent sequential quadratic programming (SQP) method is developed for multi-objective optimization problems with inequality type constraints. A feasible descent direction is obtained using a linear…
Discrete time stochastic optimal control problems and Markov decision processes (MDPs), respectively, serve as fundamental models for problems that involve sequential decision making under uncertainty and as such constitute the theoretical…
