Controlled Diffusion Approximations for Controlled Queueing Systems
Abstract
Four problem areas were studied. These are: (1) controlled heavy traffic queueing systems, (2) queueing systems with due dates, (3) backward-forward stochastic differential equations, and (4) Ginzburg-Landau equations and evolving interfaces. In areas (1) and (2), diffusion approximations were obtained for queues in heavy traffic. In (3), connections were established between quasi-linear partial differential equations and diffusion processes constructed via a new class of stochastic differential equations. Finally, (4) provides a study of the partial differential equation characterizing vortices in superconducting material in three dimensions.
