“…Notice however that the current results require a special structure of the controlled state equations, namely that the diffusion coefficient σ = σ(t, x) is uncontrolled and the drift has the following specific form b = b 1 (t, x) + σ(t, x)b 2 (t, x, a). Up to our knowledge, only the recent paper [6], which is devoted to the study of ergodic control problems, applies the BSDEs techniques to a more general class of infinite-dimensional controlled state processes; in [6] the drift has the general form b = b(x, a), however the diffusion coefficient is still uncontrolled and indeed constant, moreover the space of control actions Λ is assumed to be a real separable Hilbert space (or, more generally, according to Remark 2.2 in [6], Λ has to be the image of a continuous surjection ϕ defined on some real separable Hilbert space). Finally, [6] only addresses the non-path-dependent (or Markovian) case, and does not treat the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation related to the stochastic control problem.…”
