Abstract
The one-dimensional system dx (t =bu (t )dt +(ct 2)1/2dW (t ), where b (≠0) and c (⩾0) are real constants and W (t ) is a standard Brownian motion, is considered. The aim is to obtain the control u * that minimizes the expected value of a cost function with terminal cost equal to 0 or +∞ depending on whether the survival time in a given region is at least equal to or less than a fixed time
