A variational formula for controlled backward stochastic partial differential equations and some application

An optimal control problem for a controlled backward stochastic partial differential equation in the abstract evolution form with a Bolza type performance functional is considered. The control domain is not assumed to be convex, and all coefficients of the system are allowed to be random. A variational formula for the functional in a given control process direction is derived, by the Hamiltonian and associated adjoint system. As an application, a global stochastic maximum principle of Pontraygins type for the optimal controls is established.

Multibody Dynamics Formulations Based on Variational Principle

The formulation of multibody dynamics was studied based on variational principle. The body coonection matrix was introduced to define the connection configuration. The expression for the system kinematics was obtained by using the body connection matrix. From variational principle the general dynamical equations for multibody system were derived and the dynamical equations were given for multibody system subjected to the constraints.

GLOBAL REGULARITY FOR MODIFIED CRITICAL DISSIPATIVE QUASI-GEOSTROPHIC EQUATIONS

We consider the n-dimensional modified quasi-geostrophic（SQG） equations δtθ ＋ u·△↓θ＋kΛ^αθ=0, u = Λ^α-1R^⊥θ with κ 〉 0, α∈（0, 1] and θ0∈ W^1,∞（R^n）. In this paper, we establish a different proof for the global regularity of this system. The original proof was given by Constantin, Iyer, and Wu, who employed the approach of Besov space techniques to study the global existence and regularity of strong solutions to modified critical SQG equations for two dimensional case.The proof provided in this paper is based on the nonlinear maximum principle as well as the approach in Constantin and Vicol.

Common Fixed Point Theorems and Q-property for Quasi-contractive Mappings under c-distance on TVS-valued Cone Metric Spaces without the Normality

In this paper, we derive the stochastic maximum principle for optimal control problems of the forward-backward Markovian regime-switching system. The control system is described by an anticipated forward-backward stochastic pantograph equation and modulated by a continuous-time finite-state Markov chain. By virtue of classical variational approach, duality method, and convex analysis, we obtain a stochastic maximum principle for the optimal control.

Stochastic Differential Games with Reflection and Related Obstacle Problems for Isaacs Equations

In this paper we first investigate zero-sum two-player stochastic differential games with reflection, with the help of theory of Reflected Backward Stochastic Differential Equations （RBSDEs）. We will establish the dynamic programming principle for the upper and the lower value functions of this kind of stochastic differential games with reflection in a straightforward way. Then the upper and the lower value functions are proved to be the unique viscosity solutions to the associated upper and the lower Hamilton-Jacobi-Bettman-Isaacs equations with obstacles, respectively. The method differs significantly from those used for control problems with reflection, with new techniques developed of interest on its own. Further, we also prove a new estimate for RBSDEs being sharper than that in the paper of E1 Karoui, Kapoudjian, Pardoux, Peng and Quenez （1997）, which turns out to be very useful because it allows us to estimate the LP-distance of the solutions of two different RBSDEs by the p-th power of the distance of the initial values of the driving forward equations. We also show that the unique viscosity solution to the approximating Isaacs equation constructed by the penalization method converges to the viscosity solution of the Isaacs equation with obstacle.
