A level-set approach for stochastic optimal control problems under controlled-loss constraints

We study a family of optimal control problems under a set of controlled-loss constraints holding at different deterministic dates. The characterization of the associated value function by a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation usually calls for additional strong assumptions on the dynamics of the proces...

A level-set approach for stochastic optimal control problems under controlled-loss constraints
description We study a family of optimal control problems under a set of controlled-loss constraints holding at different deterministic dates. The characterization of the associated value function by a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation usually calls for additional strong assumptions on the dynamics of the processes involved and the set of constraints. To treat this problem in absence of those assumptions, we first convert it into a state-constrained stochastic target problem and then apply a level-set approach. With this approach, the state constraints can be managed through an exact penalization technique.
