On the full information best-choice problem. (English) Zbl 0871.60038
Summary: We introduce the optimal stopping problem of an infinite sequence of records associated with a planar Poisson process. This problem serves as a limiting form of the classical full information best-choice problem. A link between the finite problem and its limiting form is established via embedding \(n\) i.i.d. observations into the planar process.
