AbstractWe study an ergodic singular control problem with constraint of a regular one-dimensional linear diffusion. The constraint allows the agent to control the diffusion only at the jump times of an independent Poisson process. Under relatively weak assumptions, we characterize the optimal solution as an impulse-type control policy, where it is optimal to exert the exact amount of control needed to push the process to a unique threshold. Moreover, we discuss the connection of the present problem to ergodic singular control problems, and illustrate the results with different well-known cost and diffusion structures.

Path Synthesis

Dynamic Path Synthesis refers to a class of linkage synthesis problems in which constraint paths between specified positions are determined in such a way as to optimize some measure of the resulting dynamic behavior. These problems can be transformed into nonlinear optimal control problems which are generally non-autonomous. The physical nature of the system allows general comments to be made regarding uniqueness, controllability, and singular control. The ideas are developed in the context of a two-link device yielding a fourth order non-linear control problem, for which a numerical example is presented.
