The Ergodic Linear-Quadratic Optimal Control Problems with Random Periodic Coefficients

In this paper, we concern with the ergodic linear-quadratic closed-loop optimal control problems with random periodic coefficients. We put forward the random periodic mean-square exponentially stable condition, and prove the random periodicity of solutions to state equation based on it. Then we prove the existence and uniqueness of random periodic solutions to two types of backward stochastic differential equations which serve as stochastic Riccati equations in the procedure of completing the square. With the random periodicity of state equation and stochastic Riccati equations, the ergodic cost functional on infinite horizon is simplified to an equivalent cost functional over a single periodic interval without limit. Finally, the closed-loop optimal controls are explicitly given based on random periodic solutions to state equation and stochastic Riccati equations.
