This paper extends the project initiated in arXiv:2002.00201 and studies a lifecycle portfolio choice problem with borrowing constraints and finite retirement time in which an agent receives labor income that adjusts to financial market shocks in a path dependent way. The novelty here, with respect to arXiv:2002.00201, is the fact that we have a finite retirement time, which makes the model more realistic, but harder to solve. The presence of both path-dependency, as in arXiv:2002.00201, and finite retirement, leads to a two-stages infinite dimensional stochastic optimal control problem, a family of problems which, to our knowledge, has not yet been treated in the literature. We solve the problem completely, and find explicitly the optimal controls in feedback form. This is possible because we are able to find an explicit solution to the associated infinite dimensional Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation, even if state constraints are present. Note that, differently from arXiv:2002.00201 , here the HJB equation is of parabolic type, hence the work to identify the solutions and optimal feedbacks is more delicate, as it involves, in particular, time-dependent state constraints, which, as far as we know, have not yet been treated in the infinite dimensional literature. The explicit solution allows us to study the properties of optimal strategies and discuss their financial implications.

We study the optimal control of path-dependent McKean-Vlasov equations valued in Hilbert spaces motivated by non Markovian mean-field models driven by stochastic PDEs. We first establish the well-posedness of the state equation, and then we prove the dynamic programming principle (DPP) in such a general framework. The crucial law invariance property of the value function V is rigorously obtained, which means that V can be viewed as a function on the Wasserstein space of probability measures on the set of continuous functions valued in Hilbert space. We then define a notion of pathwise measure derivative, which extends the Wasserstein derivative due to Lions [41], and prove a related functional It{^o} formula in the spirit of Dupire [24] and Wu and Zhang [51]. The Master Bellman equation is derived from the DPP by means of a suitable notion of viscosity solution. We provide different formulations and simplifications of such a Bellman equation notably in the special case when there is no dependence on the law of the control.
We present a robust version of the life-cycle optimal portfolio choice problem in the presence of labor income, as introduced in Biffis, Gozzi and Prosdocimi (Optimal portfolio choice with path dependent labor income: the infinite horizon case, SIAM Journal on Control and Optimization, 58(4), 1906-1938.) and Dybvig and Liu (Lifetime consumption and investment: retirement and constrained borrowing, Journal of Economic Theory, 145, pp. 885-907). In particular, in Biffis, Gozzi and Prosdocimi the influence of past wages on the future ones is modelled linearly in the evolution equation of labor income, through a given weight function. The optimization relies on the resolution of an infinite dimensional HJB equation. We improve the state of art in three ways. First, we allow the weight to be a Radon measure. This accommodates for more realistic weighting of the sticky wages, like e.g. on a discrete temporal grid according to some periodic income. Second, there is a general correlation structure between labor income and stocks market. This naturally affects the optimal hedging demand, which may increase or decrease according to the correlation sign. Third, we allow the weight to change with time, possibly lacking perfect identification. The uncertainty is specified by a given set of Radon measures $K$, in which the weight process takes values. This renders the inevitable uncertainty on how the past affects the future, and includes the standard case of error bounds on a specific estimate for the weight. Under uncertainty averse preferences, the decision maker takes a maxmin approach to the problem. Our analysis confirms the intuition: in the infinite dimensional setting, the optimal policy remains the best investment strategy under the worst case weight.
We consider a mean field game (MFG) of optimal portfolio liquidation under asymmetric information. We prove that the solution to the MFG can be characterized in terms of a FBSDE with possibly singular terminal condition on the backward component or, equivalently, in terms of a FBSDE with finite terminal value, yet singular driver. Extending the method of continuation to linear-quadratic FBSDE with singular driver we prove that the MFG has a unique solution. Our existence and uniqueness result allows to prove that the MFG with possibly singular terminal condition can be approximated by a sequence of MFGs with finite terminal values.
This paper studies a class of non$-$Markovian singular stochastic control problems, for which we provide a novel probabilistic representation. The solution of such control problem is proved to identify with the solution of a $Z-$constrained BSDE, wit h dynamics associated to a non singular underlying forward process. Due to the non$-$Markovian environment, our main argumentation relies on the use of comparison arguments for path dependent PDEs. Our representation allows in particular to quantify the regularity of the solution to the singular stochastic control problem in terms of the space and time initial data. Our framework also extends to the consideration of degenerate diffusions, leading to the representation of the solution as the infimum of solutions to $Z-$constrained BSDEs. As an application, we study the utility maximisation problem with transaction costs for non$-$Markovian dynamics.
We solve non-Markovian optimal switching problems in discrete time on an infinite horizon, when the decision maker is risk aware and the filtration is general, and establish existence and uniqueness of solutions for the associated reflected backward stochastic difference equations. An example application to hydropower planning is provided.
