The Dynamic Programming approach for a family of optimal investment models with vintage capital is here developed. The problem falls into the class of infinite horizon optimal control problems of PDE's with age structure that have been studied in various papers (see e.g. [11, 12], [30, 32])...

A family of optimal control problems for economic models, where state variables are driven by delay differential equations (DDEs) and subject to constraints, is treated by Bellman's dynamic programming in infinite dimensional spaces. An existence theorem is provided for the associated...

Segmentation is a core strategy in modern marketing, and age-specific segmentation based on the age of the consumers is very common in practice. Age-specific segmentation enables the change of the segments composition during time and can be studied only by means of dynamic advertising models....
