Titolo: How to Control a Process to a Goal

Abstract: Suppose that you have a fortune of $10 and seek to reach $100 by placing bets at xed odds on repetitions of a given event such as the appearance of red (or black) on each spin of a roulette wheel. What is the best strategy for you to reach your goal? What strategy will get you there in the least expected time? What if you are competing with another player? I will discuss these and related problems in both discrete and continuous time.

Tutti gli interessati sono invitati a partecipare.

Cordiali saluti, Laura Sangalli
