In the past couple of decades, the use of ``non-quadratic" convex cost functions has revolutionized signal processing, machine learning, and statistics, allowing one to customize solutions to have desired structures and properties. However,…
This paper is concerned with a stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control problem in a finite time horizon, where the coefficients of the control system are allowed to be random, and the weighting matrices in the cost functional are…
We study the performance of the certainty equivalent controller on Linear Quadratic (LQ) control problems with unknown transition dynamics. We show that for both the fully and partially observed settings, the sub-optimality gap between the…
This paper introduces a generalization of the well-known Riccati recursion for solving the discrete-time equality-constrained linear quadratic optimal control problem. The recursion can be used to compute the solutions as well as optimal…
We consider a general linear control system and a general quadratic cost, where the state evolves continuously in time and the control is sampled, i.e., is piecewise constant over a subdivision of the time interval. This is the framework of…
We study the time-inconsistent linear quadratic optimal control problem for forward-backward stochastic differential equations with potentially indefinite cost weighting matrices for both the state and the control variables. Our research…
This paper focuses on finding approximate solutions to stochastic optimal control problems with control domains being not necessarily convex, where the state trajectory is subject to controlled stochastic differential equations. The…
A general backward stochastic linear-quadratic optimal control problem is studied, in which both the state equation and the cost functional contain the nonhomogeneous terms. The main feature of the problem is that the weighting matrices in…
This paper is concerned with a general linear quadratic (LQ) control problem of mean-field backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE). Here, the weighting matrices in the cost functional are allowed to be indefinite. Necessary and…
This paper focuses on the discrete-time backward stochastic linear quadratic (BSLQ) optimal control problem with nonhomogeneous system terms and cost function cross terms. The terminal constraint of such systems distinguishes it from…
This paper mainly establishes the finite-horizon stochastic bounded real lemma, and then solves the $H_{\infty}$ control problem for discrete-time stochastic linear systems defined on the separable Hilbert spaces, thereby unifying the…
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…
In this paper, we propose a new Robust Nonlinear Quadratic Gaussian (RNQG) controller based on State-Dependent Riccati Equation (SDRE) scheme for continuous-time nonlinear systems. Existing controllers do not account for combined noise and…
We study the closed-loop solvability of a stochastic linear quadratic optimal control problem for systems governed by stochastic evolution equations. This solvability is established by means of solvability of the corresponding Riccati…
This paper is concerned with a backward stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ, for short) optimal control problem with deterministic coefficients. The weighting matrices are allowed to be indefinite, and cross-product terms in the control and…
Asymptotic stability in economic receding horizon control can be obtained under a strict dissipativity assumption, related to positive-definiteness of a so-called rotated cost, and through the use of suitable terminal cost and constraints.…
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…
In model predictive control (MPC), the choice of cost-weighting matrices and designing the Hessian matrix directly affects the trade-off between rapid state regulation and minimizing the control effort. However, traditional MPC in quadratic…
To address the issue of inaccurate distributions in practical stochastic systems, a minimax linear-quadratic control method is proposed using the Wasserstein metric. Our method aims to construct a control policy that is robust against…
The closed-loop stability and infinite-horizon performance of receding-horizon approximations are studied for non-stationary linear-quadratic regulator (LQR) problems. The approach is based on a lifted reformulation of the optimal control…
