Discounting and Patience in Optimal Stopping and Control Problems
The optimal stopping time of any pure stopping problem with nonnegative termination value is increasing in “patience,” understood as a partial ordering of discount functions. When utility depends on some Markov state controlled by the agent, the result holds in a “continuation–domain” sense. When utility is increasing in the state, and the state is a one–dimensional diffusion, the result also h...
متن کاملMultiple Constraints in Optimal Control Problems
The origin of multiple constraints on a control function in both lumped and distributed systems is investigated. Equivalence and comparability notions are discussed. It is pointed out that multiple constraints have a special significance in optimal control problems of infinite-dimensional systems. An opt.ima1 control problem wit.h more than one const.raint. on the cont.ro1 function is called a ...
متن کاملDiscounting while treating generations equally
This chapter asks whether equal treatment of generations is compatible with social discounting. It presents the rank-discounted utilitarian criterion, proposed by Stéphane Zuber and analyzed in Zuber and Asheim (2010), which combines equal treatment with social discounting by giving priority for the worse off not only due to their absolute level of well-being but also their relative rank in wel...
متن کاملEfficiently solving multiple objective optimal control problems
This paper discusses an improved method for solving multiple objective optimal control (MOOC) problems, and efficiently obtaining the set of Pareto optimal solutions. A general MOOC procedure has been introduced in Logist et al. [2007], to derive optimal generic temperature profiles for a steady-state tubular plug flow reactor. This procedure is based on a weighted sum of the different costs, a...
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...
