Abstract

This work focuses on optimal harvesting-renewing for a stochastic population. A mixed regular-singular control formulation with a state constraint and regime switching is introduced. The decision-makers either harvest or renew with finite or infinite harvesting/renewing rates. The payoff functions depend on the harvesting/renewing rates. Several properties of the value function are established. The limiting value function as the white noise intensity approaches infinity is identified. The Markov chain approximation method is used to find numerical approximation of the value function and optimal strategies.
