Singular control of the one-dimensional Brownian motion with quadratic instantaneous cost function and costly direction switching on the infinite time horizon is analyzed in detail, leading to a closed-form solution. This example is used as an illustration of qualitative differences between the class of problems considered here and classic singular stochastic control.","PeriodicalId":49862,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Methods of Operations Research","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-03","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135739025","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

{"title":"Optimal stopping and impulse control in the presence of an anticipated regime switch","authors":"Luis H. R. Alvarez E., Wiljami Sillanpää","doi":"10.1007/s00186-023-00838-9","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00186-023-00838-9","url":null,"abstract":"Abstract We consider a class of stochastic optimal stopping and impulse control problems where the agent solving the problem anticipates that a regime switch will happen at a random time in the future. We assume that there are only two regimes, the regime switching time is exponentially distributed, the underlying stochastic process is a linear, regular, time-homogeneous diffusion in both regimes and the payoff may be regime-dependent. This is in contrast with most existing literature on the topic, where regime switching is modulated by a continuous-time Markov chain and the underlying process and payoff belong to the same parametric family in all regimes. We state a set of easily verifiable sufficient conditions under which the solutions to these problems are given by one-sided threshold strategies. We prove uniqueness of the thresholds and characterize them as solutions to certain algebraic equations. We also study how anticipation affects optimal policies i.e. we present various comparison results for problems with and without regime switching. It may happen that the anticipative value functions and optimal policies coincide with the usual ones even if the regime switching structure is non-trivial. We illustrate our results with practical examples.","PeriodicalId":49862,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Methods of Operations Research","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135200132","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The aim is to partition the nodes into clusters maximizing the sum of the edge weights within the clusters. This problem is known as the clique partitioning problem, being NP-hard in the general case of having edge weights of different signs. We propose a new method of estimating an upper bound of the objective function that we combine with the classical branch-and-bound technique to find the exact solution. We evaluate our approach on a broad range of random graphs and real-world networks. The proposed approach provided tighter upper bounds and achieved significant convergence speed improvements compared to known alternative methods.","PeriodicalId":49862,"journal":{"name":"Mathematical Methods of Operations Research","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-09-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136108419","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"数学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
