We formulate a new two-variable river environmental restoration problem based on jump stochastic differential equations (SDEs) governing the sediment storage and nuisance benthic algae population dynamics in dam-downstream river. Controlling is carried out through impulsive replenishment with discrete random observation/intervention to avoid depletion thick growth. consider cost-efficient manag...

in this paper, we obtain a suitable mathematical model for the seismic response of dams. by using the shear beam model (sb model), we give a mathematical formulation that it is a partial differential equation and transform it to the sturm-liouville equation.

We provide an approximation scheme for the maximal expected utility and optimal investment policies for the portfolio choice problem in an incomplete market. Incompleteness stems from the presence of a stochastic factor which affects the dynamics of the correlated stock price. The scheme is built on the Trotter-Kato approximation and is based on an intuitively pleasing splitting of the Hamilton...

An optimal control problem is considered for a stochastic differential equation with the cost functional determined by backward Volterra integral (BSVIE, short). This kind of can cover general discounting (including exponential and non-exponential) situations recursive feature. It known that such time-inconsistent in general. Therefore, instead finding global control, we look time-consistent lo...

nonstandard finite difference schemes for the black-scholes partial differential equation preserving the positivity property are proposed. computationally simple schemes are derived by using a nonlocal approximation in the reaction term of the black-scholes equation. unlike the standard methods, the solutions of new proposed schemes are positive and free of the spurious oscillations.

This study investigates the optimal switching boundary to a renewable fuel when oil prices exhibit continuous random fluctuations along with occasional discontinuous jumps. In this paper, oil prices are modeled to follow jump diffusion processes. A completeness result is derived. Given that the market is complete the value of a contingent claim is risk neutral expectation of the discounted pay ...

We consider the numerical solution of discretised Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations with applications in finance. For the discrete linear complementarity problem arising in American option pricing, we study a policy iteration method. We show, analytically and numerically, that, in standard situations, the computational cost of this approach is comparable to that of European option pricing...

Stochastic differential games are considered in a non-Markovian setting. Typically, in stochastic differential games the modulating process of the diffusion equation describing the state flow is taken to be Markovian. Then Nash equilibria or other types of solution such as Pareto equilibria are constructed using Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equations. But in a non-Markovian setting the HJB met...

We present a new method for the nonlinear approximation of the solution manifolds of parameterized nonlinear evolution problems, in particular in hyperbolic regimes with moving discontinuities. Given the action of a Lie group on the solution space, the original problem is reformulated as a partial differential algebraic equation system by decomposing the solution into a group component and a sp...
