TLDR
In this paper, the authors considered the continuous-time consumption-portfolio problem for an individual whose income is generated by capital gains on investments in assets with prices assumed to satisfy the geometric Brownian motion hypothesis, which implies that asset prices are stationary and lognormally distributed.

Risk Sensitive Portfolio Management with Cox--Ingersoll--Ross Interest Rates: The HJB Equation

TL;DR: In this paper, an application of risk sensitive control theory in financial decision making is presented, where the investor has an infinite horizon objective that can be interpreted as maximizing the portfolio's risk adjusted exponential growth rate.

The costs of suboptimal dynamic asset allocation: General results and applications to interest rate risk, stock volatility risk, and growth/value tilts

TL;DR: This article developed a general theoretical framework for answering such questions and applied it to three specific models of interest rate risk, stochastic stock volatility, and mean reversion and growth/value tilts of stock portfolios.

Dynamic programming for a Markov-switching jump–diffusion

TL;DR: A detailed proof of Bellman’s optimality principle is provided and the corresponding Hamilton–Jacobi–Belman equation is obtained, which turns out to be a partial integro-differential equation due to the extra terms arising from the Levy process and the Markov process.

Lifetime Portfolio Selection under Uncertainty: The Continuous-Time Case

TL;DR: In this paper, the combined problem of optimal portfolio selection and consumption rules for an individual in a continuous-time model was examined, where his income is generated by returns on assets and these returns or instantaneous "growth rates" are stochastic.

Lifetime Portfolio Selection By Dynamic Stochastic Programming

TL;DR: In this paper, the optimal consumption-investment problem for an investor whose utility for consumption over time is a discounted sum of single-period utilities, with the latter being constant over time and exhibiting constant relative risk aversion (power-law functions or logarithmic functions), is discussed.
