A Direct Method for Solving Optimal Switching Problems of One-Dimensional Diffusions
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we propose a direct solution method for optimal switching problems of one-dimensional diffusions. This method is free from conjectures about the form of the value function and switching strategies, or does not require the proof of optimality through quasi-variational inequalities. The direct method uses a general theory of optimal stopping problems for one-dimensional diffusions and characterizes the value function as sets of the smallest linear majorants in their respective transformed spaces.

Optimal Pareto Parametric Analysis of Two Dimensional Steady-State Heat Conduction Problems by MLPG Method
Numerical solutions obtained by the Meshless Local Petrov-Galerkin (MLPG) method are presented for two dimensional steady-state heat conduction problems. The MLPG method is a truly meshless approach, and neither the nodal connectivity nor the background mesh is required for solving the initial-boundary-value problem. The penalty method is adopted to efficiently enforce the essential boundary co...

We characterize the optimal switching problem as coupled optimal stoping problems. We then use the optimal stopping theory to provide a solution. As opposed to the methods using quasi-variational inequalities and verification theorem we directly work with the value function.
متن کاملAn iterative procedure for solving integral equations related to optimal stopping problems∗
We present an iterative algorithm for computing values of optimal stopping problems for one-dimensional diffusions on finite time intervals. The method is based on a time discretisation of the initial model and a construction of discretised analogues of the associated integral equation for the value function. The proposed iterative procedure converges in a finite number of steps and delivers in...

We consider an approximation scheme using Haar wavelets for solving a class of infinite horizon optimal control problems (OCP's) of nonlinear interconnected large-scale dynamic systems. A computational method based on Haar wavelets in the time-domain is proposed for solving the optimal control problem. Haar wavelets integral operational matrix and direct collocation method are utilized to find ...
متن کاملSolving optimal control problems by PSO-SVM
The optimal control of problem is about finding a control law for a given system such that a certain optimality criterion is achieved. Methods of solving the optimal control problems are divided into direct methods and mediated methods (through other equations). In this paper, the PSO- SVM indirect method is used to solve a class of optimal control problems. In this paper, we try to determine t...
