: For an infinite-horizon optimal control problem, the cost does not, in general, converge. The classical work-around to this problem is to introduce a discount or "forgetting...
An optimal stochastic control problem is considered for systems with unbounded controls satisfying an integral constraint. It is shown that there exists an optimal control within t...
In this paper we deal with a perturbed algebraic Riccati equation in an infinite dimensional Banach space. Besides the interest in its own right, this class of equations appears, ...
We consider the problem of solving a nonhomogeneous infinite horizon Markov Decision Process (MDP) problem in the general case of potentially multiple optimal first period polic...

Abstract. In this paper, we study the problem of controlling the expected exit time from a region for a class of stochastic hybrid systems. That is, we find the least costly feedb...
