Portfolio turnpikes state that as the investment horizon increases, optimal portfolios for generic utilities converge to those of isoelastic utilities. This paper proves three kinds of turnpikes. In a general semimartingale setting, the abstract turnpike states that optimal final payoffs and...

We approximate the price of the American put for jump diffusions by a sequence of functions, which are computed iteratively. This sequence converges to the price function uniformly and exponentially fast. Each element of the approximating sequence solves an optimal stopping problem for geometric...

The routing capacity region of networks with multiple unicast sessions can be characterized using Farkas lemma as an infinite set of linear inequalities. In this paper this result is sharpened by exploiting properties of the solution satisfied by each rate-tuple on the boundary of the capacity...

We study a backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) whose terminal condition is an integrable function of a local martingale and generator has bounded growth in z. When the local martingale is a strict local martingale, the BSDE admits at least two different solutions. Other than a...
