We consider discrete-time infinite horizon deterministic optimal control problems with nonnegative cost per stage, and a destination that is cost-free and absorbing. The classical linear-quadratic regulator problem is a special case. Our…
This paper deals with junction conditions for Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations for finite horizon control problems on multi-domains. We consider two different cases where the final cost is continuous or lower semi-continuous. In the…
We propose a tractable dynamic framework for the joint determination of optimal consumption, portfolio choice, and healthcare irreversible investment. Our model is based on a Merton's portfolio and consumption problem, where, in addition,…
In the last decades, control problems with infinite horizons and discount factors have become increasingly central not only for economics but also for applications in artificial intelligence and machine learning. The strong links between…
We study the optimal investment-consumption problem for a member of defined contribution plan during the decumulation phase. For a fixed annuitization time, to achieve higher final annuity, we consider a variable consumption rate. Moreover,…
We consider a class of closed loop stochastic optimal control problems in finite time horizon, in which the cost is an expectation conditional on the event that the process has not exited a given bounded domain. An important difficulty is…
Necessary conditions of optimality in the form of the Pontryagin Maximum Principle are derived for the Bolza-type discounted problem with free right end. The optimality is understood in the sense of the uniformly overtaking optimality. Such…
We study an agent's lifecycle portfolio choice problem with stochastic labor income, borrowing constraints and a finite retirement date. Similarly to arXiv:2002.00201, wages evolve in a path-dependent way, but the presence of a finite…
An optimal control problem with an infinite horizon quadratic cost functional for a linear system with a known additive disturbance is considered. The feature of this problem is that a weight matrix of the control cost in the cost…
We characterize the value of swing contracts in continuous time as the unique viscosity solution of a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation with suitable boundary conditions. The case of contracts with penalties is straightforward, and in that…
We study semi Lagrangian approximation schemes for Hamilton Jacobi Bellman equations arising from finite horizon optimal control problems. Classical error estimates for these schemes include the term $\frac{1}{\Delta t}$ which leads to…
This paper is dedicated to the analysis of infinite horizon optimal control problems subject to semilinear parabolic equations with constraints on the controls and discounted cost functionals. The discount factors on the cost and the state…
This paper studies optimal Public Private Partnerships contract between a public entity and a consortium, in continuous-time and with a continuous payment, with the possibility for the public to stop the contract. The public ("she") pays a…
We consider the problem of portfolio optimization in a simple incomplete market and under a general utility function. By working with the associated Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman partial differential equation (HJB PDE), we obtain a closed-form…
We study the problem of dynamically trading a futures contract and its underlying asset under a stochastic basis model. The basis evolution is modeled by a stopped scaled Brownian bridge to account for non-convergence of the basis at…
This article is a continuation of a previous work where we studied infinite horizon control problems for which the dynamic, running cost and control space may be different in two half-spaces of some euclidian space $\R^N$. In this article…
We examine the problem of two-point boundary optimal control of nonlinear systems over finite-horizon time periods with unknown model dynamics by employing reinforcement learning. We use techniques from singular perturbation theory to…
We investigate the optimal investment-reinsurance problem for insurance company with partial information on the market price of the risk. Through the use of filtering techniques we convert the original optimization problem involving…
We investigate feedback control for infinite horizon optimal control problems for partial differential equations. The method is based on the coupling between Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations and model reduction techniques. It is…
In this paper, we study representation formulas for finite-horizon optimal control problems with or without state constraints, unifying two different viewpoints: the Lagrangian and dynamic programming (DP) frameworks. In a recent work [1],…
