arXiv:2607. 27563v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: New venture start-ups need to ``survive'' through multiple stages of reaching milestone targets.
arXiv:2512. 14991v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study reinforcement learning for controlled diffusion processes with unbounded continuous state spaces, bounded continuous actions, and polynomially growing rewards: settings that arise naturally in finance, economics, and operations research.
arXiv:2607. 29593v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper studies the policy gradient update for a multi-arm bandit problem in diffusion environment that is described by a stochastic differential equation (SDE) under the continuous-time reinforcement learning framework by Wang et al.
arXiv:2602. 05533v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study conditional generation in diffusion models under hard constraints, where generated samples must satisfy prescribed events with probability one.
arXiv:2606. 17269v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In skill-constrained production-inventory systems, the qualified human capacity available tomorrow depends on training decisions made today: production requires certified workers, certifications decay unless maintained, and training consumes the same scarce worker hours that production needs now.
arXiv:2606. 18820v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sequential decision problems often exhibit an asymmetric evolution of information and decision flexibility: as a decision cycle unfolds, the agent receives richer information while feasible actions expire due to operational cutoffs, commitments, or resource constraints.
arXiv:2608. 10936v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study a Restart POMDP (Partially Observable Markov Decision Process) on a general Borel state space, where the controller either lets the hidden state evolve unobserved or restarts the system and observes the new state.
arXiv:2606. 00970v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study risk-neutral control in Markov decision processes with an absorbing catastrophic state.
arXiv:2604. 08580v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Reward fine-tuning of diffusion and flow models and sampling from tilted or Boltzmann distributions can both be formulated as stochastic optimal control (SOC) problems, where learning an optimal generative dynamics corresponds to optimizing a control under SDE constraints.
arXiv:2607. 11005v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper develops a model-free reinforcement learning framework for continuous--time extended mean field control problems, where both the dynamics and reward may depend on the joint distribution of states and controls.
arXiv:2608. 02343v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Many operational problems are constrained sequential decision processes with large, combinatorial action spaces and interdependent feasibility constraints.
arXiv:2606. 15359v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Diffusion models have emerged as powerful tools for planning and control by learning multimodal distributions over actions and trajectories.
arXiv:2512. 09850v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We introduce Conformal Bandits, a novel framework integrating Conformal Prediction (CP) into bandit problems, a classic paradigm for sequential decision-making under uncertainty.
