This research considers the ranking and selection with input uncertainty. The objective is to maximize the posterior probability of correctly selecting the best alternative under a fixed simulation budget, where each alternative is measured…
Lipschitz one-dimensional constrained global optimization (GO) problems where both the objective function and constraints can be multiextremal and non-differentiable are considered in this paper. Problems, where the constraints are verified…
In this paper we extend dynamic programming techniques to the study of discrete-time infinite horizon optimal control problems on compact control invariant sets with state-independent best asymptotic average cost. To this end we analyse the…
In this paper, we study the optimal singular controls for stochastic recursive systems, in which the control has two components: the regular control, and the singular control. Under certain assumptions, we establish the dynamic programming…
A robust control problem is considered in this paper, where the controlled stochastic differential equations (SDEs) include ambiguity parameters and their coefficients satisfy non-Lipschitz continuous and non-linear growth conditions, the…
We study the problem of estimating the average of a Lipschitz continuous function $f$ defined over a metric space, by querying $f$ at only a single point. More specifically, we explore the role of randomness in drawing this sample. Our goal…
We consider the stability of Robust Optimization problems with respect to perturbations in their uncertainty sets. We focus on Linear Optimization problems, including those with a possibly infinite number of constraints, also known as…
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…
This paper is devoted to a new modification of a recently proposed adaptive stochastic mirror descent algorithm for constrained convex optimization problems in the case of several convex functional constraints. Algorithms, standard and its…
In this paper, we study a stochastic optimal control problem under degenerate G-expectation. By using implied partition method, we show that the approximation result for admissible controls still hold. Based on this result, we prove that…
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…
Generalising the idea of the classical EM algorithm that is widely used for computing maximum likelihood estimates, we propose an EM-Control (EM-C) algorithm for solving multi-period finite time horizon stochastic control problems. The new…
In this work, we investigate a stochastic control framework for global optimization over both Euclidean spaces and the Wasserstein space of probability measures, where the objective function may be non-convex and/or non-differentiable. In…
In this paper we provide optimal bounds for fully discrete approximations to finite horizon problems via dynamic programming. We adapt the error analysis in \cite{nos} for the infinite horizon case to the finite horizon case. We prove an a…
We consider distributionally robust optimal control of stochastic linear systems under signal temporal logic (STL) chance constraints when the disturbance distribution is unknown. By assuming that the underlying predicate functions are…
We analyze the stability of general nonlinear discrete-time stochastic systems controlled by optimal inputs that minimize an infinite-horizon discounted cost. Under a novel stochastic formulation of cost-controllability and detectability…
We analyze the convergence rate of various momentum-based optimization algorithms from a dynamical systems point of view. Our analysis exploits fundamental topological properties, such as the continuous dependence of iterates on their…
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 time optimal control problem with a general target $\mathcal S$ for a class of differential inclusions that satisfy mild smoothness and controllability assumptions. In particular, we do not require Petrov's condition at the…
In this article, we provide sufficient conditions under which the controlled vector fields solution of optimal control problems formulated on continuity equations are Lipschitz regular in space. Our approach involves a novel combination of…
