✦ Synopsis

Dynamic programming for piecewise deterministic Markov processes is studied where only the jumps but not the deterministic flow can be controlled. Then one can dispense with relaxed controls, There exists an optimal stationary policy of feedback form. Further, a piecewise deterministic Markov model for the control of dividend pay-out and reinsurance is introduced. This model can be transformed to a model with uncontrolled flow. It is shown that a classical solution to the Bellman equation exists and that a non-relaxed optimal policy of feedback form can be obtained via the Bellman equation. Lipschitz continuity of the one-dimensional vector field defining the controlled flow will be replaced by strict positivity.

In this paper we consider infinite horizon risk-sensitive control of Markov processes with discrete time and denumerable state space. This problem is solved by proving, under suitable conditions, that there exists a bounded solution to the dynamic programming equation. The dynamic programming equati

## Abstract Action observation leads to the automatic activation of the corresponding motor representation in the observer through “mirror‐matching.” This constitutes a “shared representational system,” which is thought to subserve social understanding by motor simulation. However, it is unclear ho
