    PDE Geometric Analysis seminar, University of Wisconsin - Madison
We study state-constraint boundary conditions arising in optimal control problems, where the system state is confined to a prescribed domain. Introducing noise leads to a stochastic control problem whose value function also satisfies a state-constraint condition and converges to the deterministic solution as the noise vanishes. Unlike the deterministic case, the stochastic behavior depends on whether the Hamiltonian has subquadratic or superquadratic growth. After briefly reviewing the subquadratic case, we focus on the superquadratic regime and establish convergence rates of the value function in terms of the noise magnitude. In particular, beyond the general rate, we prove a better one-sided rate under semiconcavity assumptions. The proofs rely on new barrier constructions and optimal control arguments, as state-constraint solutions are delicate and not semiconcave up to the boundary.
