Building up time-consistency for risk measures and dynamic optimization

2016 
In stochastic optimal control, one deals with sequential decision-making under uncertainty; with dynamic risk measures, one assesses stochastic processes (costs) as time goes on and information accumulates. Under the same vocable of time-consistency (or dynamic-consistency), both theories coin two different notions: the latter is consistency between successive evaluations of a stochastic processes by a dynamic risk measure (a form of monotonicity); the former is consistency between solutions to intertemporal stochastic optimization problems. Interestingly, both notions meet in their use of dynamic programming, or nested, equations.
