Reflecting-boundary strategy for unbounded harvesting
Reflecting-boundary strategy for unbounded harvesting
Consider the population process with unbounded harvesting governed by
where is a non-negative, increasing, right-continuous process adapted to . Assume that the population survives without harvesting, namely . Reflecting-boundary conjecture. The optimal extraction strategy has the form
for some , where is the local time at of the process . This conjecture extends the bounded-rate bang-bang result to unbounded harvesting: after an initial removal above the threshold, harvesting is represented by local time at a reflecting boundary. The source presents this as a conjectured optimal solution and does not provide a proof.
