Abstract

In this paper we consider a stochastic optimal control problem, in which the cost function is defined through a reflected backward stochastic differential equation in sublinear expectation framework. Besides, we study the regularity of the value function and establish the dynamic programming principle. Moreover, we prove that the value function is the unique viscosity solution of the related Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman-Isaac equation.
