Optimal Control and Nonlinear Filtering for Nondegenerate Diffusion Processes.
Abstract
A linear parabolic partial differential equation describing the pathwise filter for a nondegenerate diffusion is changed, by an expotential substitution, into the dynamic programming equation of an optimal stochastic control problem. This substitution is applied to obtain results about the rate of decay as the numerical value of chi approaches infinity of solutions p(chi, tau) to the pathwise filter equation, and for solutions of the corresponding Zakai equation.
