Bellman equation: Applications & Economy

A Bellman equation, named after Richard E. Bellman, is a technique in dynamic programming which breaks an optimization problem into a sequence of simpler subproblems, as Bellman's "principle of optimality" prescribes. It is a necessary condition for optimality. The "value" of a decision problem at a certain point in time is written in terms of the payoff…
