Abstract

Introducing an auxiliary complete observation control problem, using the separated controls and a Veretennikov's theorem extension, we have proved, in a probabilistic manner -by density control method- that the partially observed control problem has a separated optimal policy amongst the admissible controls defined to be all the processes adapted to the observation's filtration.
