The Study of two Evolutionary random Nonlinear Problems
The problem of minimizing the ergodic or time-averaged cost for a controlled diffusion with partial observations can be recast as an equivalent control problem for the associated nonlinear filter. In analogy with the completely observed case, one may seek the value function for this problem as the vanishing discount limit of value functions for the associated discounted cost problems. This passage is justified here for the scalar case under a stability hypothesis, leading in particular to a "martingale"...
We describe several results obtained recently on stochastic nonlinear Schrödinger equations. We show that under suitable smoothness assumptions on the noise, the nonlinear Schrödinger perturbed by an additive or multiplicative noise is well posed under similar assumptions on the nonlinear term as in the deterministic theory. Then, we restrict our attention to the case of a focusing nonlinearity with critical or supercritical exponent. If the noise is additive, smooth in space and non degenerate,...
We show that the only flow solving the stochastic differential equation (SDE) on
