Abstract
A control problem is formulated and solved for a stochastic system that evolves in the unit sphere in Euclidean three space. The cost functional depends on the system state only by its Riemannian distance from a point called the origin. An explicit optimal control is obtained by expressing the cost as a squared term in the control from which the optimal control and the optimal cost follow directly.
