A Note on $G$- Optimal Stopping Problems

Abstract

We consider a class of discretionary stopping problems within the $G$-framework. We first establish the well-definedness of the stopping problem under the $G$-expectation, by showing the quasi-continuity of the stopped process. We then prove a verification theorem for $G$-optimal stopping problem. One corollary is a direct proof for the well-known fact that the $G$-optimal stopping problem is the same as the classical optimal stopping problem with appropriate parameters, when the payoff function is concave or convex.
