Abstract

In this paper we consider continuous time risk sensitive optimal stopping problem. Using the probabilistic approach and dyadic discrete time approximations we prove continuity of the generic optimal stopping value function for a large class of Feller-Markov processes. Also, we provide formulas for the corresponding optimal stopping policies and study regularity of approximating functions.
