(Homogeneous) markovian bridges

Vincent Vigon (2011)

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

Similarity:

(Homogeneous) Markov bridges are (time homogeneous) Markov chains which begin at a given point and end at a given point. The price to pay for preserving the homogeneity is to work with processes with a random life-span. Bridges are studied both for themselves and for their use in describing the transformations of Markov chains: restriction on a random interval, time reversal, time change, various conditionings comprising the confinement in some part of the state space. These bridges...

Estimates for perturbations of average Markov decision processes with a minimal state and upper bounded by stochastically ordered Markov chains

Raúl Montes-de-Oca, Francisco Salem-Silva (2005)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

This paper deals with Markov decision processes (MDPs) with real state space for which its minimum is attained, and that are upper bounded by (uncontrolled) stochastically ordered (SO) Markov chains. We consider MDPs with (possibly) unbounded costs, and to evaluate the quality of each policy, we use the objective function known as the average cost. For this objective function we consider two Markov control models ℙ and ℙ 1 . ℙ and ℙ 1 have the same components except for the transition laws....

On additive and multiplicative (controlled) Poisson equations

G. B. Di Masi, Ł. Stettner (2006)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

Assuming that a Markov process satisfies the minorization property, existence and properties of the solutions to the additive and multiplicative Poisson equations are studied using splitting techniques. The problem is then extended to the study of risk sensitive and risk neutral control problems and corresponding Bellman equations.
