Finite time-horizon risk-sensitive control and the robust limit under a quadratic growth assumption
The finite time horizon risk-sensitive limit problem for continuous nonlinear systems is considered. Previous results are extended to cover more typical examples. In particular, the cost may grow quadratically, and the diffusion coefficient may depend on the state. It is shown that the risk-sensitive value function is the solution of the corresponding dynamic programming equation. It is also shown that this value converges to the value of the robust control problem as the cost becomes infinitely risk averse, with corresponding scaling of the diffusion coefficient.
