The linear quadratic regulator problem is central in optimal control and was investigated since the very beginning of control theory. Nevertheless, when it includes affine state constraints, it remains very challenging from the classical…
In this paper, we prove both necessary and sufficient maximum principles for infinite horizon discounted control problems of stochastic Volterra integral equations with finite delay and a convex control domain. The corresponding adjoint…
The quadratic optimal state feedback (LQR) is one of the most popular designs for linear systems and succeeds via the solution of the algebraic Riccati equation. The situation is different in the case of non-linear systems: the Riccati…
Hamilton-Jacobi partial differential equations (HJ PDEs) have deep connections with a wide range of fields, including optimal control, differential games, and imaging sciences. By considering the time variable to be a higher dimensional…
In the present paper we derive, via a backward induction technique, and ad hoc maximum principle for an optimal control problem with multiple random terminal times. Therefore we apply the aforementioned result to the case of a linear…
This paper focuses on indefinite stochastic mean-field linear-quadratic (MF-LQ, for short) optimal control problems, which allow the weighting matrices for state and control in the cost functional to be indefinite. The solvability of…
We study a linear quadratic problem for a system governed by the heat equation on a halfline with Dirichlet boundary control and Dirichlet boundary noise. We show that this problem can be reformulated as a stochastic evolution equation in a…
In this note, we study a class of indefinite stochastic McKean-Vlasov linear-quadratic (LQ in short) control problem under the control taking nonnegative values. In contrast to the conventional issue, both the classical dynamic programming…
We study the optimal control of a rate-independent system that is driven by a convex, quadratic energy. Since the associated solution mapping is non-smooth, the analysis of such control problems is challenging. In order to derive optimality…
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…
In this paper, we establish an exponential periodic turnpike property for linear quadratic optimal control problems governed by periodic systems in infinite dimension. We show that the optimal trajectory converges exponentially to a…
The aim of this paper is to adapt the general multitime maximum principle to a Riemannian setting. More precisely, we intend to study geometric optimal control problems constrained by the metric compatibility evolution PDE system; the…
A discrete-time stochastic LQ problem with multiplicative noises and state transmission delay is studied in this paper, which does not require any definiteness constraint on the cost weighting matrices. From some abstract representations of…
The solvability of equilibrium Riccati equations (EREs) plays a central role in the study of time-inconsistent stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control problems, because it paves the way to constructing a closed-loop equilibrium…
This paper is devoted to the analysis of a finite horizon discrete-time stochastic optimal control problem, in presence of constraints. We study the regularity of the value function which comes from the dynamic programming algorithm. We…
In this paper we study a class of HJB equations which solve for equilibria for general time-inconsistent deterministic linear quadratic control problems within the intra-personal game theoretic framework, where the inconsistency arises from…
We study a family of optimal control problems in which one aims at minimizing a cost that mixes a quadratic control penalization and the variance of the system, both for finitely many agents and for the mean-field dynamics as their number…
We consider a bilinear optimal control for an evolution equation involving the fractional Laplace operator of order $0<s<1$. We first give some existence and uniqueness results for the considered evolution equation. Next, we establish some…
An online policy learning problem of linear control systems is studied. In this problem, the control system is known and linear, and a sequence of quadratic cost functions is revealed to the controller in hindsight, and the controller…
This paper addresses the inverse optimal control problem of finding the state weighting function that leads to a quadratic value function when the cost on the input is fixed to be quadratic. The paper focuses on a class of infinite horizon…
