“…On the basis of the system of SDEs and the performance index, the dynamic programming principle (see section 5 in the work of Fleming and Soner) leads to the three‐dimensional HJB governing Φ, ie, for 0 < t < T , n > 0, 0 < x < 1, 0 < π < 1, with the generator L c defined for generic sufficiently smooth F = F ( t , n , x , π ) as The three‐dimensional HJB equation is reduced to a two‐dimensional degenerate parabolic partial differential equation assuming the solution of the separation of variables type as in the works of Yoshioka and Yaegashi, ie, …”
