Ergodic risk-sensitive control: history, new results and open problems
[ Abstract ]

Risk-sensitive control became popular because of the robustness it provides to the optimal control. Its connection to the theory of large deviation also made it a natural candidate of mathematical interest. In this talk, we shall give an overview of the history of risk-sensitive control problems and some of its applications. We shall then (informally) discuss the ways of tackling this problem and the main questions of interest. At the end, we shall see some important open problems.
