ExactVariance of Random Return in Distributional LQR and Its Application to Mean-Variance Optimal Control

Ruyi Teng, Zifan Wang, Yulong Gao

The classical linear quadratic regulator (LQR) minimizes the expected cumulative return but fails to account for performance variability, rendering it inadequate for risk-aware app…

Wasserstein Distributionally Robust Nash Equilibrium Seeking with Heterogeneous Data: A Lagrangian Approach

Zifan Wang, Georgios Pantazis, Sergio Grammatico +2

We study a class of distributionally robust games where agents are allowed to heterogeneously choose their risk aversion with respect to distributional shifts of the uncertainty. I…

First- and Zeroth-Order Learning in Asynchronous Games

Zifan Wang, Xinlei Yi, Michael M. Zavlanos +1

This paper investigates the discrete-time asynchronous games in which noncooperative agents seek to minimize their individual cost functions. Building on the assumption of partial…

Projected Gradient Descent for Constrained Decision-Dependent Optimization

Zifan Wang, Changxin Liu, Thomas Parisini +2

This paper considers the decision-dependent optimization problem, where the data distributions react in response to decisions affecting both the objective function and linear const…

Learning of Nash Equilibria in Risk-Averse Games

Zifan Wang, Yi Shen, Michael M. Zavlanos +1

This paper considers risk-averse learning in convex games involving multiple agents that aim to minimize their individual risk of incurring significantly high costs. Specifically,…

Constrained Optimization with Decision-Dependent Distributions

Zifan Wang, Changxin Liu, Thomas Parisini +2

In this paper we deal with stochastic optimization problems where the data distributions change in response to the decision variables. Traditionally, the study of optimization prob…

Convergence Analysis of the Best Response Algorithm for Time-Varying Games

Zifan Wang, Yi Shen, Michael M. Zavlanos +1

This paper studies a class of strongly monotone games involving non-cooperative agents that optimize their own time-varying cost functions. We assume that the agents can observe ot…
