A maximum principle for a stochastic control problem with multiple random terminal times

  • Received: 01 April 2020 Accepted: 02 May 2020 Published: 08 May 2020
  • In the present paper we derive, via a backward induction technique, an ad hoc maximum principle for an optimal control problem with multiple random terminal times. We thus apply the aforementioned result to the case of a linear quadratic controller, providing solutions for the optimal control in terms of Riccati backward SDE with random terminal time.
