Abstract

This chapter contains some optimal control problems for systems described by stochastic differential inclusions. The existence of optimal controls and optimal solutions for such systems is a consequence of the weak compactness in distribution of the set \(\,\mathcal {Z}^x_D(F,\mathcal {G})\) defined in Remark 6.3.1 of Chapter 6, by the set of all weak solutions to (equivalence classes to) \(\,SDI(F,\mathcal {G})\,\) satisfying the initial condition x 0 = x with \(x\in D\subset \mathbb {R}^d\). We begin with an introductory remark dealing with stochastic optimal control problems for systems described by stochastic differential equations depending on stochastic control parameters.
