Abstract

Stochastic optimization serves as a central tool for effective population management. We present an impulse control model and a related singular control model for finding the cost-effective and sustainable population management policies of fish-eating birds, predators of fishery resources. The impulse control model considers the cost proportional to the amount of the killed bird and the fixed cost, while singular counterpart considers only the proportional cost. Their optimal controls are discussed from both qualitative and quantitative viewpoints.
