RT Journal Article T1 On a PDE arising in one-dimensional stochastic control problems A1 Josa-Fombellida, Ricardo A1 Rincón-Zapatero, Juan Pablo AB The paper provides a systematic way for finding a partial differentialequation that directly characterizes the optimal control, in the framework of onedimensionalstochastic control problems of Mayer type, with no constraints on thecontrols. The results obtained are applied to continuous-time portfolio problems.
