Uniqueness of Viscosity Solutions for Optimal Multi-Modes Switching Problem with Risk of default [PDF]
In this paper we study the optimal m-states switching problem in finite horizon as well as infinite horizon with risk of default. We allow the switching cost functionals and cost of default to be of polynomial growth and arbitrary.
