On the structure of solutions of ergodic type Bellman equation related to risk-sensitive control. (English) Zbl 1092.60030

The authors consider Bellman equations of ergodic type, with positive quadratic nonlinear term on first-order partial derivatives. They obtain multiple solutions, and they classify them by a global behavior of the underlying diffusion processes. They also prove uniqueness and stability of the solution associated with ergodic diffusion process.
