Abstract

Let Xt be a controlled one-dimensional standard Brownian motion starting from x ∈ (−d, d). The problem of optimally controlling X (t) until |X (t)| = d for the first time is solved explicitly in a particular case. The maximal value that the instantaneous reward given for survival in (−d, d) can take is determined.
