Abstract
We consider the constrained optimal control problem for the gradual-impulsive CTMDP model with the performance criteria being the expected total undiscounted costs (from the running cost and the cost from each time an impulse being applied). The discounted model is covered as a special case. We justify fully a reduction method, and close an open issue in the previous literature. The reduction method induces an equivalent but simpler standard CTMDP model with gradual control only, based on which, we establish effectively, under rather natural conditions, a linear programming approach for solving the concerned constrained optimal control problem.
