Optimal investment under stochastic volatility and power type utility function

Benchaabane, Abbes, Benchettah, Azzedine (2011)

Serdica Mathematical Journal

Similarity:

2000 Mathematics Subject Classification: 37F21, 70H20, 37L40, 37C40, 91G80, 93E20. In this work we will study a problem of optimal investment in financial markets with stochastic volatility with small parameter. We used the averaging method of Bogoliubov for limited development for the optimal strategies when the small parameter of the model tends to zero and the limit for the optimal strategy and demonstrated the convergence of these optimal strategies.

Viscosity solutions for an optimal control problem with Preisach hysteresis nonlinearities

Fabio Bagagiolo (2010)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

We study a finite horizon problem for a system whose evolution is governed by a controlled ordinary differential equation, which takes also account of a hysteretic component: namely, the output of a Preisach operator of hysteresis. We derive a discontinuous infinite dimensional Hamilton–Jacobi equation and prove that, under fairly general hypotheses, the value function is the unique bounded and uniformly continuous viscosity solution of the corresponding Cauchy problem.

Risk minimizing strategies for a portfolio of interest-rate securities

Andrzej Palczewski (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The paper presents an application of stochastic control methods to fixed income management in an incomplete market with external economic factors. The objective of an investor is the minimization of a shortfall risk. The problem is reduced to the multidimensional Bellman equation. It is shown that for a large class of loss functions the equation possesses a continuous solution. We also consider loss functions from the HARA class and prove that for such functions the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman...

Dynamic programming principle for stochastic recursive optimal control problem with delayed systems

Li Chen, Zhen Wu (2012)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

In this paper, we study one kind of stochastic recursive optimal control problem for the systems described by stochastic differential equations with delay (SDDE). In our framework, not only the dynamics of the systems but also the recursive utility depend on the past path segment of the state process in a general form. We give the dynamic programming principle for this kind of optimal control problems and show that the value function is the viscosity solution of the corresponding infinite...

Robust portfolio selection under exponential preferences

Dariusz Zawisza (2010)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

We consider an incomplete market with an untradable stochastic factor and a robust investment problem based on the CARA utility. We formulate it as a stochastic differential game problem, and use Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman-Isaacs equations to derive an explicit representation of the robust optimal portfolio; the HJBI equation is transformed using a substitution of the Cole-Hopf type. Not only the pure investment problem, but also a problem of robust hedging is taken into account: an agent...

Differentiability of the Feynman-Kac semigroup and a control application

Giuseppe Da Prato, Jerzy Zabczyk (1997)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti Lincei. Matematica e Applicazioni

Similarity:

The Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation corresponding to a large class of distributed control problems is reduced to a linear parabolic equation having a regular solution. A formula for the first derivative is obtained.

The vanishing viscosity method in infinite dimensions

Piermarco Cannarsa, Giuseppe Da Prato (1989)

Atti della Accademia Nazionale dei Lincei. Classe di Scienze Fisiche, Matematiche e Naturali. Rendiconti

Similarity:

The vanishing viscosity method is adapted to the infinite dimensional case, by showing that the value function of a deterministic optimal control problem can be approximated by the solutions of suitable parabolic equations in Hilbert spaces.

A general Hamilton-Jacobi framework for non-linear state-constrained control problems

Albert Altarovici, Olivier Bokanowski, Hasnaa Zidani (2013)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Similarity:

The paper deals with deterministic optimal control problems with state constraints and non-linear dynamics. It is known for such problems that the value function is in general discontinuous and its characterization by means of a Hamilton-Jacobi equation requires some controllability assumptions involving the dynamics and the set of state constraints. Here, we first adopt the viability point of view and look at the value function as its epigraph. Then, we prove that this epigraph can...
