Abstract

We characterize the value function and the optimal stopping time for a large class of optimal stopping problems where the underlying process to be stopped is a fairly general Markov process. The main result is inspired by recent findings for Lévy processes obtained essentially via the Wiener–Hopf factorization. The main ingredient in our approach is the representation of the β-excessive functions as expected suprema. A variety of examples is given.
