find_dp_cautious(SDP_Mat, x_grid, h_grid, OptTime, xT, profit, delta,
  reward = 0, P = 1)

Arguments

SDP_Mat

the stochastic transition matrix at each h value

x_grid

the discrete values allowed for the population size, x

h_grid

the discrete values of harvest levels to optimize over

OptTime

the stopping time

xT

the boundary condition population size at OptTime

profit

the cost/profit function, a function of harvested level

delta

the exponential discounting rate

reward

the profit for finishing with >= Xt fish at the end (i.e. enforces the boundary condition)

P

fraction of optimal harvest to use as the policy.

Value

list containing the matrices D and V. D is an x_grid by OptTime matrix with the indices of h_grid giving the optimal h at each value x as the columns, with a column for each time. V is a matrix of x_grid by x_grid, which is used to store the value function at each point along the grid at each point in time. The returned V gives the value matrix at the first (last) time.
