Optimal control of impulsive stochastic evolution inclusions

N.U. Ahmed (2002)

Discussiones Mathematicae, Differential Inclusions, Control and Optimization

In this paper, we consider a class of infinite dimensional stochastic impulsive evolution inclusions driven by vector measures. We use stochastic vector measures as controls adapted to an increasing family of complete sigma algebras and prove the existence of optimal controls.

Optimal position targeting with stochastic linear-quadratic costs

Stefan Ankirchner, Thomas Kruse (2015)

Banach Center Publications

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 candidate...

Optimal transportation for multifractal random measures and applications

Rémi Rhodes, Vincent Vargas (2013)

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

In this paper, we study optimal transportation problems for multifractal random measures. Since these measures are much less regular than optimal transportation theory requires, we introduce a new notion of transportation which is intuitively some kind of multistep transportation. Applications are given for construction of multifractal random changes of times and to the existence of random metrics, the volume forms of which coincide with the multifractal random measures.

Optimal transportation for the determinant

Guillaume Carlier, Bruno Nazaret (2008)

ESAIM: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations

Among 3 -valued triples of random vectors (X,Y,Z) having fixed marginal probability laws, what is the best way to jointly draw (X,Y,Z) in such a way that the simplex generated by (X,Y,Z) has maximal average volume? Motivated by this simple question, we study optimal transportation problems with several marginals when the objective function is the determinant or its absolute value.
