Description for Stochastic Control in Discrete and Continuous Time
Paperback. This book is a comprehensive introduction to stochastic control problems in both discrete and continuous time. It covers stochastic dynamic programming and the optimal stopping problem for discrete time with a finite or infinite horizon. Num Pages: 222 pages, 5 black & white tables, biography. BIC Classification: PBWL. Category: (P) Professional & Vocational. Dimension: 235 x 155 x 16. Weight in Grams: 468.
This book contains an introduction to three topics in stochastic control: discrete time stochastic control, i. e. , stochastic dynamic programming (Chapter 1), piecewise - terministic control problems (Chapter 3), and control of Ito diffusions (Chapter 4). The chapters include treatments of optimal stopping problems. An Appendix - calls material from elementary probability theory and gives heuristic explanations of certain more advanced tools in probability theory. The book will hopefully be of interest to students in several ?elds: economics, engineering, operations research, ?nance, business, mathematics. In economics and business administration, graduate students should readily be able to read it, and ... Read more

Reviews for Stochastic Control in Discrete and Continuous Time
From the reviews: "This book provides a comprehensive introduction to stochastic control. … The treatment is at the level of a first course, with several examples and exercises. The book can be used by undergraduate students, but also by graduate students, engineers and others who study control, systems and related areas or want to extend their knowledge in ... Read more
