Viscosity Solutions to Delay Differential Equations in Demo-Economy

Mathematical Population Studies, 2008, vol. 15, issue 1, 27-54

Abstract: Economic and demographic models governed by linear delay differential equations are expressed as optimal control problems in infinite dimensions. A general objective function is considered and the concavity of the Hamiltonian is not required. The value function is a viscosity solution of the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation and a verification theorem is proved.
