Abstract

A quadratic control for discrete stochastic systems with random parameters and additive and multiplicative noises dependent on state and controls is studied. Equations for the optimal linear static and dynamic output controllers are derived. The controllers are robust to the type of the distribution of the vector of random parameters. The results are applied to dynamic investment portfolio optimization.
