This paper is concerned with the relationship between maximum principle and dynamic programming for stochastic recursive optimal control problems. Under certain differentiability conditions, relations among the adjoint processes, the generalized Hamiltonian function, and the value function are given. A linear quadratic recursive utility portfolio optimization problem in the financial engineering is discussed as an explicitly illustrated example of the main result.

In this work, we consider the time discretization of stochastic optimal control problems. Under general assumptions on the data, we prove the convergence of the value functions associated with the discrete time problems to the value function of the original problem. Moreover, we prove that any sequence of optimal solutions of discrete problems is minimizing for the continuous one. As a consequence of the Dynamic Programming Principle for the discrete problems, the minimizing sequence can be taken in discrete time feedback form.
