Abstract
This paper considers an infinite horizon stochastic production planning problem with demand assumed to be a continuous-time Markov chain. The problems with control (production) and state (inventory) constraints are treated. It is shown that a unique optimal feedback solution exists, after first showing that convex viscosity solutions to the associated dynamic programming equation are continuously differentiable.
