Abstract

We consider a stochastic input–output system with additional total clearings at certain random times determined by its own evolution (and specified by a controller). Between two clearings, the stock level process is a superposition of a Brownian motion with drift and a compound Poisson process with positive jumps, reflected at zero. We introduce meaningful cost functionals for this system and determine them explicitly under several (classical and new) clearing policies.
