Time-inconsistent stochastic optimal control problems and backward stochastic volterra integral equations [PDF]

open access: yesE S A I M: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, 2019
An optimal control problem is considered for a stochastic differential equation with the cost functional determined by a backward stochastic Volterra integral equation (BSVIE, for short).

Open-loop and closed-loop solvabilities for stochastic linear quadratic optimal control problems of Markovian regime switching system

open access: yesE S A I M: Control, Optimisation and Calculus of Variations, 2021
This paper investigates the stochastic linear quadratic (LQ, for short) optimal control problem of Markovian regime switching system. The representation of the cost functional for the stochastic LQ optimal control problem of Markovian regime switching ...

Stochastic maximum principle for optimal control of SPDEs [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
In this note, we give the stochastic maximum principle for optimal control of stochastic PDEs in the general case (when the control domain need not be convex and the diffusion coefficient can contain a control variable)

Stochastic Optimal Control of HVAC System for Energy-Efficient Buildings [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology, 2019
The heating, ventilation, and air-conditioning (HVAC) system account for substantial energy use in buildings, whereas a large group of occupants is still not actually feeling comfortable staying inside. This poses the issue of developing energy-efficient

Optimal Transportation Problem by Stochastic Optimal Control [PDF]

open access: yesSIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 2008
We address an optimal mass transportation problem by means of optimal stochastic control. We consider a stochastic control problem which is a natural extension of the Monge-Kantorovich problem. Using a vanishing viscosity argument we provide a probabilistic proof of two fundamental results in mass transportation: the Kantorovich duality and the graph ...

Nonlinear Stochastic Control and Information Theoretic Dualities: Connections, Interdependencies and Thermodynamic Interpretations

open access: yesEntropy, 2015
In this paper, we present connections between recent developments on the linearly-solvable stochastic optimal control framework with early work in control theory based on the fundamental dualities between free energy and relative entropy. We extend these

The Optimal Control Problem with State Constraints for Fully Coupled Forward-Backward Stochastic Systems with Jumps

open access: yesAbstract and Applied Analysis, 2014
We focus on the fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equations with jumps and investigate the associated stochastic optimal control problem (with the nonconvex control and the convex state constraint) along with stochastic maximum ...

Optimal control in an inventory management problem considering replenishment lead time based upon a non-diffusive stochastic differential equation

open access: yesJournal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and Manufacturing, 2019
An inventory management problem is theoretically discussed for a factory having effects of lead times in replenishing the inventory, where it stocks materials used for its products.

Maximum Principle for Forward-Backward Doubly Stochastic Control Systems and Applications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The maximum principle for optimal control problems of fully coupled forward-backward doubly stochastic differential equations (FBDSDEs in short) in the global form is obtained, under the assumptions that the diffusion coefficients do not contain the ...
