Abstract :
An infinite-horizon investment-consumption model is considered in which the wealth of a single agent is consumed and distributed in two assets, a bond and a stock. The problem of maximization of the total utility from consumption is treated. State (amount allocated in assets) and control (consumption, rates of trading) constraints are present. It is shown that the value function is the unique viscosity solution of a system of variational inequalities with gradient constraints
