Bellman optimality principle for the stochastic dynamic system on time scales is derived, which includes the continuous time and discrete time as special cases. At the same time, the Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation on time scales is obtained. Finally, an example is employed to illustrate our main results.

In this paper, we study the synchronization problem for nonlinearly coupled complex dynamical networks on time scales. To achieve synchronization for nonlinearly coupled complex dynamical networks on time scales, a pinning control strategy is designed. Some pinning synchronization criteria are established for nonlinearly coupled complex dynamical networks on time scales, which guarantee the whole network can be pinned to some desired state. The model investigated in this paper generalizes the continuous-time and discrete-time nonlinearly coupled complex dynamical networks to a unique and general framework. Moreover, two numerical examples are given for illustration and verification of the obtained results.

Dynamic asymmetric contest games are examined under the assumption that the assessed value of the prize by each agent depends on the total effort of all agents, and each agent has only delayed information about the efforts of the competitors. Assuming gradient dynamics with continuous time scales, first the resulting one-delay model is investigated. Then, assuming additional delayed information about the agents’ own efforts, a two-delay model is constructed and analyzed. In both cases, first the characteristic equation is derived in the general case, and then two special cases are considered. First, symmetric agents are assumed and then general duopolies are examined. Conditions are derived for the local stability of the equilibrium including stability thresholds and stability switching curves.

We assume a continuous-time price impact model similar to that of Almgren–Chriss but with the added assumption that the price impact parameters are stochastic processes modeled as correlated scalar Markov diffusions. In this setting, we develop trading strategies for a trader who desires to liquidate his inventory but faces price impact as a result of his trading. For a fixed trading horizon, we perform coefficient expansion on the Hamilton–Jacobi–Bellman (HJB) equation associated with the trader’s value function. The coefficient expansion yields a sequence of partial differential equations that we solve to give closed-form approximations to the value function and optimal liquidation strategy. We examine some special cases of the optimal liquidation problem and give financial interpretations of the approximate liquidation strategies in these cases. Finally, we provide numerical examples to demonstrate the effectiveness of the approximations.
