General optimal stopping with linear cost
From MaRDI portal
Publication:5085243
Abstract: This article treats both discrete time and continuous time stopping problems for general Markov processes on the real line with general linear costs. Using an auxiliary function of maximum representation type, conditions are given to guarantee the optimal stopping time to be of threshold type. The optimal threshold is then characterized as the root of that function. For random walks our results condense in the fact that all combinations of concave increasing pay-off functions and convex cost functions lead to a one-sided solution. For L'evy processes an explicit way to obtain the auxiliary function and the threshold is given by use of the ladder height processes. Lastly, the connection from discrete and continuous problem and possible approximation of the latter one via the former one is discussed.
