Optimal position targeting with stochastic linear-quadratic costs

Stefan Ankirchner, Thomas Kruse (2015)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We consider the dynamic control problem of attaining a target position at a finite time T, while minimizing a linear-quadratic cost functional depending on the position and speed. We assume that the coefficients of the linear-quadratic cost functional are stochastic processes adapted to a Brownian filtration. We provide a probabilistic solution in terms of two coupled backward stochastic differential equations possessing a singularity at the terminal time T. We verify optimality of the...

Strong solutions for stochastic differential equations with jumps

Zenghu Li, Leonid Mytnik (2011)

Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques

Similarity:

General stochastic equations with jumps are studied. We provide criteria for the uniqueness and existence of strong solutions under non-Lipschitz conditions of Yamada–Watanabe type. The results are applied to stochastic equations driven by spectrally positive Lévy processes.

Equivalent cost functionals and stochastic linear quadratic optimal control problems

Zhiyong Yu (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

This paper is concerned with the stochastic linear quadratic optimal control problems (LQ problems, for short) for which the coefficients are allowed to be random and the cost functionals are allowed to have negative weights on the square of control variables. We propose a new method, the equivalent cost functional method, to deal with the LQ problems. Comparing to the classical methods, the new method is simple, flexible and non-abstract. The new method can also be applied to deal with...
