Résumé

We study a class of nonlinear stochastic control problems with semicontinuous cost and state constraints using a linear programming (LP) approach. First, we provide a primal linearized problem stated on an appropriate space of probability measures with support contained in the set of constraints. This space is completely characterized by the coefficients of the control system. Second, we prove a semigroup property for this set of probability measures appearing in the definition of the primal value function. This leads to dynamic programming principles for control problems under state constraints with general (bounded) costs. A further linearized DPP is obtained for lower semicontinuous costs.
