%0 Journal Article %T On Bellman's principle with inequality constraints %A Edwin K. P. Chong %A Scott A. Miller %A Jason Adaska %J Mathematics %D 2011 %I arXiv %X We consider an example by Haviv (1996) of a constrained Markov decision process that, in some sense, violates Bellman's principle. We resolve this issue by showing how to preserve a form of Bellman's principle that accounts for a change of constraint at states that are reachable from the initial state. %U http://arxiv.org/abs/1111.3271v1
