Dual stochastic descriptions of streamflow dynamics under model ambiguity through a Markovian embedding

open access: yesJournal of Mathematics in Industry, 2023
Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman equation (HJBE) and backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) are the two faces of stochastic control. We explore their equivalence focusing on a system of self-exciting and affine stochastic differential equations (SDEs ...
