متن کاملOptimal debt contracts and diversity of opinions : an extreme case of bunching
This paper studies optimal menus of debt contracts such as secured debentures or bonds, in the presence of diversity of opinions between borrowers and lenders. We first characterize incentive compatible contracts, then prove the existence of optimal debt contracts. Finally, we are able to explicitly characterize such optimal menus within a specific case: we notably show that borrowers optimally...
متن کاملDynamic Sampling Applied to Problems in Optimal Control1
Dynamic sampling utilizes the option of varying the sampling rates according to the situation of the systems, by that obtaining procedures with improved efficiencies. In this paper, the technique is applied to a typical problem in optimal control theory, that of tracking and controlling the position of an object. It is shown that the dynamic sampling results in a significantly improved procedur...

Submitted for the MAR06 Meeting of The American Physical Society Optimizing quantum gate fidelities using energy-optimal control1 SONIA SCHIRMER, Univ. of Cambridge — Optimal control theory offers a promising framework for optimizing essential tasks in quantum computing from quantum state preparation to the implementation of quantum gates. It is applicable to a wide variety of systems from atom...
متن کاملThe Complexity of Optimal Queuing Network Control1
We show that several well-known optimization problems related to the optimal control of queues are provably intractable |independently of any unproven conjecture such as P6 =NP. In particular, we show that several versions of the problem of optimally controlling a simple network of queues with simple arrival and service distributions and multiple customer classes is complete for exponential tim...
