Abstract

In this paper, we study a kind of recursive optimal control problem whose utility functional is described by the solution of a reflected backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE). We obtain a sufficient stochastic maximum principle of optimal controls. Moreover, a mixed optimal control problem is considered to illustrate the application of our theoretical result and the optimal control and stopping strategy are given.
