Abstract

This chapter is the core of the mathematical part of the book. It deals with the approximation and convergence theorems for the basic problem classes: discounted problems with absorbing boundaries; diffusion and jump diffusion models; optimal stopping problems, and problems where we stop on hitting a target set and where there is no discounting. The convergence results for the case of reflecting boundaries and the singular and ergodic control problems will appear in the next chapter.
