Duality Theory for Robust Utility Maximisation
In this paper we present a duality theory for the robust utility maximisation problem in continuous time for utility functions defined on the positive real axis. Our results are inspired by -- and can be seen as the robust analogues of -- the seminal work of Kramkov & Schachermayer [18]. Namely, we show that if the set of attainable trading outcomes and the set of pricing measures satisfy a bipolar relation, then the utility maximisation problem is in duality with a conjugate problem. We further discuss the existence of optimal trading strategies. In particular, our general results include the case of logarithmic and power utility, and they apply to drift and volatility uncertainty.

Infinite horizon utility maximisation from inter-temporal wealth
We develop a duality theory for the problem of maximising expected lifetime utility from inter-temporal wealth over an infinite horizon, under the minimal no-arbitrage assumption of No Unbounded Profit with Bounded Risk …
Deep Learning for Constrained Utility Maximisation
This paper proposes two algorithms for solving stochastic control problems with deep learning, with a focus on the utility maximisation problem. The first algorithm solves Markovian problems via the Hamilton Jacobi Bellm…

While absence of arbitrage in frictionless financial markets requires price processes to be semimartingales, non-semimartingales can be used to model prices in an arbitrage-free way, if proportional transaction costs are…
