In this paper, we study non-homogeneous stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ) optimal control problems with multi-dimensional state and regime switching. We focus on the corresponding stochastic Riccati equation, which is the same as that one in…
This paper considers the finite element approximation to parabolic optimal control problems with measure data in a nonconvex polygonal domain. Such problems usually possess low regularity in the state variable due to the presence of measure…
This paper is concerned with an optimal control problem governed by a non-smooth semilinear elliptic equation. We show that the control-to-state mapping is directionally differentiable and precisely characterize its Bouligand…
In this chapter, we are concerned with inverse optimal control problems, i.e., optimization models which are used to identify parameters in optimal control problems from given measurements. Here, we focus on linear-quadratic optimal control…
For an optimal control problem of an It\^o's type stochastic differential equation, the control process could be taken as open-loop or closed-loop forms. In the standard literature, provided appropriate regularity, the value functions under…
A mathematical framework for optimal bilinear control of nonlinear Schr\"odinger equations of Gross-Pitaevskii type arising in the description of Bose-Einstein condensates is presented. The obtained results generalize earlier efforts found…
We consider the problem of controlling an unknown linear dynamical system in the presence of (nonstochastic) adversarial perturbations and adversarial convex loss functions. In contrast to classical control, the a priori determination of an…
A general time-inconsistent optimal control problem is considered for stochastic differential equations with deterministic coefficients. Under suitable conditions, a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman type equation is derived for the equilibrium value…
The main purpose of this paper is to establish the first and second order necessary optimality conditions for stochastic optimal controls using the classical variational analysis approach. The control system is governed by a stochastic…
We reformulate a class of non-linear stochastic optimal control problems introduced by Todorov (2007) as a Kullback-Leibler (KL) minimization problem. As a result, the optimal control computation reduces to an inference computation and…
A tracking type optimal control problem for a nonlinear and nonlocal kinetic Fokker-Planck equation which arises as the mean field limit of an interacting particle systems that is subject to distance dependent random fluctuations is…
This paper is concerned with an optimal control problem for a forward-backward stochastic differential equation (FBSDE, for short) with a recursive cost functional determined by a backward stochastic Volterra integral equation (BSVIE, for…
Optimal control of the singular nonlinear parabolic PDE which is a distributional formulation of multidimensional and multiphase Stefan-type free boundary problem is analyzed. Approximating sequence of finite-dimensional optimal control…
This paper firstly presents the necessary and sufficient conditions for a kind of discrete-time robust stochastic optimal control problem with convex control domains. As it is an "inf sup problem", the classical variational method is…
We formulate nonlinear nonlocal integro-PDE with memory, biloaded (boundary integrals load the ambient space, and the ambient space loads the boundary), and the associated optimal control problems. We derive part of the necessary conditions…
In this paper, we study numerical approximations for optimal control of a class of stochastic partial differential equations with partial observations. The system state evolves in a Hilbert space, whereas observations are given in…
Optimal control of heterogeneous mean-field stochastic differential equations with common noise has not been addressed in the literature. In this work, we initiate the study of such models. We formulate the problem within a linear-quadratic…
In this paper, we investigate optimal control problems for Allen-Cahn equations with singular nonlinearities and a dynamic boundary condition involving singular nonlinearities and the Laplace-Beltrami operator. The approach covers both the…
A class of optimal control problems of hybrid nature governed by semilinear parabolic equations is considered. These problems involve the optimization of switching times at which the dynamics, the integral cost, and the bounds on the…
The purpose of this paper is to establish the first and second order necessary conditions for stochastic optimal controls in infinite dimensions. The control system is governed by a stochastic evolution equation, in which both drift and…
