Portfolio optimization literature has come quite far in the decades since the first publication, and many modern models are formulated using second-order cone constraints and take discrete decisions into consideration. In this study, we consider both single-period and multi-period portfolio...

Dynamic programming is the essential tool in dynamic economic analysis. Problems such as portfolio allocation for individuals and optimal economic growth are typical examples. Numerical methods typically approximate the value function. Recent work has focused on making numerical methods more...

This paper proposes a new approach to dynamic programming in continuous time using adaptive sparse grids. The standard finite-difference method, used to solve differential equations on uniform grids, fails on sparse grids. Our paper presents a sparse finite-difference method that leads to...

In this contribution we propose a dynamic tracking error problem and we consider the problem of monitoring at discrete point the shortfall of the portfolio below a set of given reference levels of wealth. We formulate and solve the resulting dynamic optimization problem using stochastic...

This paper considers a general class of stochastic dynamic choice models with discrete and continuous decision variables. This class contains a variety of models that are useful for modeling intertemporal household decisions under risk. Our examples are drawn from the field of development...
