考虑投资者参与证券投资及消费．由于证券、价格的变动趋势受诸多因素的影响，显示出价格很不稳定．用随机微分方程来刻划证券价格的变动趋势是合理的．Ｋａｒａｔｚａｓ等人在［１］中研究了最优消费与投资的一般特性，而且在模型参数为常系数假设下给出了反馈形式的最优消费与投资公式．但模型系数都为常值的假设在实际应用中显然有很大的局限性．为此，本文就β（ｔ）为有限分段函数情形推广了Ｋａｒａｔｚａｓ等人的结果．所得结论比Ｋａｒａｔｚａｓ［１］所得结论更具有应用价值．     

Adaptive control of a continuous-time portfolio and consumption model

In this paper, an adaptive control problem is formulated and solved using Merton's stochastic differential equation for the wealth in a portfolio selection and consumption model. Since the asset prices are assumed to satisfy a log normal distribution, it suffices to consider two assets. It is assumed that the drift parameter for the price of the risky asset is unknown. A recursive family of estimators for this unknown parameter is defined and is shown to converge almost surely to the true value of the parameter. The controls in the equation for the wealth are obtained from the optimal controls where the estimates of the unknown parameter are substituted for the unknown parameter.This research was partially supported by NSF Grant No. ECS-84-03286-A01.The authors wish to thank P. Varaiya for some useful comments on this paper.     

Optimal dividend strategy in compound binomial model with bounded dividend rates

We consider the compound binomial model, and assume that dividends are paid to the shareholders according to an admissible strategy with dividend rates bounded by a constant.The company controls the amount of dividends in order to maximize the cumulative expected discounted dividends prior to ruin. We show that the optimal value function is the unique solution of a discrete HJB equation. Moreover, we obtain some properties of the optimal payment strategy, and offer a simple algorithm for obtaining the optimal strategy. The key of our method is to transform the value function. Numerical examples are presented to illustrate the transformation method.     

Optimal investment, stochastic labor income and retirement

We address an optimal consumption-investment-retirement problem with stochastic labor income. We study the Merton problem assuming that the agent has to take four different decisions: the retirement date which is irreversible; the labor and the consumption rate and the portfolio decision before retirement. After retirement the agent only chooses the portfolio and the consumption rate. We confirm some classical results and we show that labor, portfolio and retirement decisions interact in a complex way depending on the spanning opportunities.     

Adaptive control of three continuous-time portfolio and consumption models

An economic application of adaptive control is presented using three continuous time portfolio and consumption models that are natural generalizations of a model of Merton. In these models of the wealth of an individual investor, it is assumed that the various parameters are deterministic functions of time or stochastic processes. An adaptive control problem arises for each of these models when it is assumed that the average return rate of the risky asset, which is either a deterministic function or a stochastic process, is not observed. For these models, a recursive family of estimators of the average return rate of the risky asset is given based on the observations of the wealth. These estimates are used in the control of the wealth equation.This research was partially supported by NSF Grant No. ECS-84-03286-A01 and by University of Kansas General Research Allocation No. 3806-XO-0038.

Optimal dividend payout for classical risk model with risk constraint

In this paper we consider the problem of maximizing the total discounted utility of dividend payments for a Cramér-Lundberg risk model subject to both proportional and fixed transaction costs.We assume that dividend payments are prohibited unless the surplus of insurance company has reached a level b.Given fixed level b,we derive a integro-differential equation satisfied by the value function.By solving this equation we obtain the analytical solutions of the value function and the optimal dividend strategy when claims are exponentially distributed.Finally we show how the threshold b can be determined so that the expected ruin time is not less than some T.Also,numerical examples are presented to illustrate our results.

Optimal retirement strategy with a negative wealth constraint

This paper investigates an optimal consumption, portfolio, and retirement time choice problem of an individual with a negative wealth constraint. We obtain analytical results of the optimal consumption, investment, and retirement behaviors and discuss the effect of the negative wealth constraint on the optimal behaviors. We find that, as an individual can borrow more with better credit, she is more likely to retire at a higher wealth level, to consume more, and to invest more in risky assets.     

Optimal decision rule in forming an insurance portfolio

The paper is devoted to finding an optimal decision rule for accepting/rejecting potential insureds when the demand for the insurance provision is a stochastic variable. A criterion to be maximized is the mean-variance utility function of the insurer. It is shown that the optimal decision rule is a stopping rule with some finite protection level.     

Optimal dividend and dynamic reinsurance strategies with capital injections and proportional costs

We consider an optimization problem of an insurance company in the diffusion setting, which controls the dividends payout as well as the capital injections. To maximize the cumulative expected discounted dividends minus the penalized discounted capital injections until the ruin time, there is a possibility of (cheap or non-cheap) proportional reinsurance. We solve the control problems by constructing two categories of suboptimal models, one without capital injections and one with no bankruptcy by capital injection. Then we derive the explicit solutions for the value function and totally characterize the optimal strategies. Particularly, for cheap reinsurance, they are the same as those in the model of no bankruptcy.
