This paper studies the infinite-horizon optimal consumption with a path-dependent reference under exponential utility. The performance is measured by the difference between the nonnegative consumption rate and a fraction of the historical…
Optimality conditions in the form of a variational inequality are proved for a class of constrained optimal control problems of stochastic differential equations. The cost function and the inequality constraints are functions of the…
In this paper we study an optimization problem in which the control is information, more precisely, the control is a $\sigma$-algebra or a filtration. In a dynamic setting, we establish the dynamic programming principle and the law…
We study the optimal control of path-dependent piecewise deterministic processes. An appropriate dynamic programming principle is established. We prove that the associated value function is the unique minimax solution of the corresponding…
In this paper, we investigate a sparse optimal control of continuous-time stochastic systems. We adopt the dynamic programming approach and analyze the optimal control via the value function. Due to the non-smoothness of the $L^0$ cost…
In an equity market model with "Knightian" uncertainty regarding the relative risk and covariance structure of its assets, we characterize in several ways the highest return relative to the market that can be achieved using nonanticipative…
The Bellman equation and its continuous-time counterpart, the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation, serve as necessary conditions for optimality in reinforcement learning and optimal control. While the value function is known to be the…
We study non-convex Hamilton-Jacobi equations in the presence of gradient constraints and produce new, optimal, regularity results for the solutions. A distinctive feature of those equations regards the existence of a lower bound to the…
We give a new representation formula for solutions to nonconvex first-order Hamilton--Jacobi equations in the periodic setting and present some applications. We then prove the large time behavior for solutions under some additional…
Our propose here is to provide a Hopf Lemma and a strong minimum principle for week supersolutions of \[ (-\Delta_p)^s u= c(x)|u|^{p-2}u \quad \text{ in } \Omega \] where $\Omega$ is an open set of $\mathbb{R}^N,$ $s\in(0,1),$…
The Marketron model, introduced by [Halperin, Itkin, 2025], describes price formation in inelastic markets as the nonlinear diffusion of a quasiparticle (the marketron) in a multidimensional space comprising the log-price $x$, a memory…
We establish existence and uniqueness of minimax solutions for a fairly general class of path-dependent Hamilton-Jacobi equations. In particular, the relevant Hamiltonians can contain the solution and they only need to be measurable with…
Leximin is a common approach to multi-objective optimization, frequently employed in fair division applications. In leximin optimization, one first aims to maximize the smallest objective value; subject to this, one maximizes the…
We consider a large family of integro-differential equations and establish a non-local counterpart of Hopf's lemma, directly expressed in terms of the symbol of the operator. As closely related problems, we also obtain a variety of maximum…
Two new optimization techniques based on projections onto convex space (POCS) framework for solving convex and some non-convex optimization problems are presented. The dimension of the minimization problem is lifted by one and sets…
We present a supervised dimensionality reduction technique called Convex Linear Discriminant Analysis (ConvexLDA). The proposed model optimizes a multi-objective cost function by balancing two complementary terms. The first term pulls the…
Policy iteration is a widely used technique to solve the Hamilton Jacobi Bellman (HJB) equation, which arises from nonlinear optimal feedback control theory. Its convergence analysis has attracted much attention in the unconstrained case.…
The problem of determining the European-style option price in the incomplete market has been examined within the framework of stochastic optimization. An analytic method based on the discrete dynamic programming equation (Bellman equation)…
In ergodic stochastic problems the limit of the value function $V_\lambda$ of the associated discounted cost functional with infinite time horizon is studied, when the discounted factor $\lambda$ tends to zero. These problems have been well…
We study the problem of optimal portfolio selection under stochastic volatility within a continuous time reinforcement learning framework with portfolio constraints. Exploration is modeled through entropy-regularized relaxed controls, where…
