How to compute (super) hedging costs in rather general fi- nancial market models with transaction costs in discrete-time ? Despite the huge literature on this topic, most of results are characterizations of the super-hedging prices while it…
We consider homogenization problems in the framework of deterministic optimal control when the dynamics and running costs are completely different in two (or more) complementary domains of the space $\R^N$. For such optimal control…
Differential Dynamic Programming (DDP) is an efficient trajectory optimization algorithm relying on second-order approximations of a system's dynamics and cost function, and has recently been applied to optimize systems with time-invariant…
This article approaches deterministic filtering via an application of the min-plus linearity of the corresponding dynamic programming operator. This filter design method yields a set-valued state estimator for discrete-time nonlinear…
Inspired by rational canonical forms, we introduce and analyze two decompositions of dynamic programming (DP) problems for systems with linear dynamics. Specifically, we consider both finite and infinite horizon DP problems in which the…
In this work we study the stochastic recursive control problem, in which the aggregator (or called generator) of the backward stochastic differential equation describing the running cost is continuous but not necessarily Lipschitz with…
This paper deals with unconstrained discounted continuous-time Markov decision processes in Borel state and action spaces. Under some conditions imposed on the primitives, allowing unbounded transition rates and unbounded (from both above…
In this paper, we present a scalable deep learning approach to solve opinion dynamics stochastic optimal control problems with mean field term coupling in the dynamics and cost function. Our approach relies on the probabilistic…
A very simple example of an algorithmic problem solvable by dynamic programming is to maximize, over sets A in {1,2,...,n}, the objective function |A| - \sum_i \xi_i 1(i \in A,i+1 \in A) for given \xi_i > 0. This problem, with random…
We explore the approximation of feedback control of integro-differential equations containing a fractional Laplacian term. To obtain feedback control for the state variable of this nonlocal equation we use the Hamilton--Jacobi--Bellman…
Stochastic control problems with delay are challenging due to the path-dependent feature of the system and thus its intrinsic high dimensions. In this paper, we propose and systematically study deep neural networks-based algorithms to solve…
We propose a new optimal model of product goodwill in a segmented market where the state variable is described by a partial differential equation of the Lotka--Sharp--McKendrick type. In order to maximize the sum of discounted profits over…
We study the optimal investment-consumption problem for a member of defined contribution plan during the decumulation phase. For a fixed annuitization time, to achieve higher final annuity, we consider a variable consumption rate. Moreover,…
We study the optimal control of general stochastic McKean-Vlasov equation. Such problem is motivated originally from the asymptotic formulation of cooperative equilibrium for a large population of particles (players) in mean-field…
Optimal control problems are crucial in various domains, including path planning, robotics, and humanoid control, demonstrating their broad applicability. The connection between optimal control and Hamilton-Jacobi (HJ) partial differential…
Motion planning and control problems are embedded and essential in almost all robotics applications. These problems are often formulated as stochastic optimal control problems and solved using dynamic programming algorithms. Unfortunately,…
We study a time-optimal control problem of a two-peakon collision. First, we state the controllability. Next, we find the time-optimal strategy. This is done via the HamiltonJacobi-Bellman equation and the dynamic programming method. We…
With the growing global emphasis on sustainability and the implementation of contemporary environmental policies, photovoltaic (PV) generation is playing an increasingly important role in modern power systems, while its intrinsic…
The optimal control input for linear systems can be solved from algebraic Riccati equation (ARE), from which it remains questionable to get the form of the exact solution. In engineering, the acceptable numerical solutions of ARE can be…
We study existence and uniqueness of the fixed points solutions of a large class of non-linear variable discounted transfer operators associated to a sequential decision-making process. We establish regularity properties of these solutions,…
