Risk-Aware Finite-Horizon Social Optimal Control of Mean-Field Coupled Linear-Quadratic Subsystems
We formulate and solve an optimal control problem with cooperative, mean-field coupled linear-quadratic subsystems and additional risk-aware costs depending on the covariance and skew of the disturbance. This problem quantifies the variability of the subsystem state energy rather than merely its expectation. In contrast to related work, we develop an alternative approach that illuminates a family of matrices with many analytical properties, which are useful for effectively extracting the mean-field coupled solution from a standard LQR solution.

Stochastic Approximation for Risk-aware Markov Decision Processes
We develop a stochastic approximation-type algorithm to solve finite state/action, infinite-horizon, risk-aware Markov decision processes. Our algorithm has two loops. The inner loop computes the risk by solving a stocha…

We study a finite horizon optimal contracting problem of a risk-neutral principal and a risk-averse agent who receives a stochastic income stream when the agent is unable to make commitments. The problem involves an infi…
RASR: Risk-Averse Soft-Robust MDPs with EVaR and Entropic Risk
Prior work on safe Reinforcement Learning (RL) has studied risk-aversion to randomness in dynamics (aleatory) and to model uncertainty (epistemic) in isolation. We propose and analyze a new framework to jointly model the…

Classical Risk-Averse Control for a Finite-Horizon Borel Model
We study a risk-averse optimal control problem for a finite-horizon Borel model, where a cumulative cost is assessed via exponential utility. The setting permits non-linear dynamics, non-quadratic costs, and continuous s…
