Ergodic Risk-Sensitive Control for Regime-Switching Diffusions

In this article, we study the ergodic risk-sensitive control problem for controlled regime-switching diffusions. Under a blanket stability hypothesis, we solve the associated nonlinear eigenvalue problem for weakly coupled systems and characterize the optimal stationary Markov controls via a suitable verification theorem. We also consider the near-monotone case and obtain the existence of principal eigenfunction and optimal stationary Markov controls

Asymptotics of impulse control problem with multiplicative reward

We consider a long-run impulse control problem for a generic Markov process with a multiplicative reward functional. We construct a solution to the associated Bellman equation and provide a verification result. The argument is based on the probabilistic properties of the underlying process combined with the Krein-Rutman theorem applied to the specific non-linear operator. Also, it utilises the approximation of the problem in the bounded domain and with the help of the dyadic time-grid
