Review
From the reviews:
“This book presents Markov decision processes with general state and action spaces and includes various state-of-the-art applications that stem from finance and operations research. ... very helpful, not only for graduate students, but also for researchers working in the field of MDPs and finance. The authors do not focus only on discrete-time MDPs, but provide the description of different classes of Markov models ... . Each chapter ends with remarks, where the potential reader may find further hints concerning references.” (Anna Jaskiewicz, Zentralblatt MATH, Vol. 1236, 2012)
