Stochastic monotonicity and duality for one-dimensional Markov processes
The theory of monotonicity and duality is developed for general one-dimensional Feller processes, extending the approach from [11]. Moreover it is shown that local monotonicity conditions (conditions on the Lévy kernel) are sufficient to prove the well-posedness of the corresponding Markov semigroup and process, including unbounded coefficients and processes on the half-line.
متن کاملStochastic programs without duality gaps
This paper studies dynamic stochastic optimization problems parametrized by a random variable. Such problems arise in many applications in operations research and mathematical finance. We give sufficient conditions for the existence of solutions and the absence of a duality gap. Our proof uses extended dynamic programming equations, whose validity is established under new relaxed conditions tha...
متن کاملDuality gaps in nonconvex stochastic optimization
We consider multistage stochastic optimization models containing nonconvex constraints, e.g., due to logical or integrality requirements. We study three variants of Lagrangian relaxations and of the corresponding decomposition schemes, namely, scenario, nodal and geographical decomposition. Based on convex equivalents for the Lagrangian duals, we compare the duality gaps for these decomposition...
متن کاملDuality for Labelled Markov Processes
Labelled Markov processes (LMPs) are automata whose transitions are given by probability distributions. In this paper we present a ‘universal’ LMP as the spectrum of a commutative C∗-algebra consisting of formal linear combinations of labelled trees. We characterize the state space of the universal LMP as the set of homomorphims from an ordered commutative monoid of labelled trees into the mult...
متن کاملStochastic processes in gravitropism
In this short review we focus on the role of noise in gravitropism of plants - the reorientation of plants according to the direction of gravity. We briefly introduce the conventional picture of static gravisensing in cells specialized in sensing. This model hinges on the sedimentation of statoliths (high in density and mass relative to other organelles) to the lowest part of the sensing cell. ...
