In this paper, we prove a comparison result between semicontinuous viscosity sub- and supersolutions growing at most quadratically of second-order degenerate parabolic Hamilton Jacobi - Bellman and Isaacs equations. As an application, we characterize the value function of a finite horizon stochastic control problem with unbounded controls as the unique viscosity solution of the corresponding dynamic programming equation.

Abstract

In this paper, we prove a comparison result between semicontinuous viscosity sub- and supersolutions growing at most quadratically of second-order degenerate parabolic Hamilton Jacobi - Bellman and Isaacs equations. As an application, we characterize the value function of a finite horizon stochastic control problem with unbounded controls as the unique viscosity solution of the corresponding dynamic programming equation.
