Abstract
We consider a stochastic optimal control problem where the controller can anticipate the evolution of the driving noise over some dynamically changing time window. The controlled state dynamics are understood as a rough differential equation. We combine the martingale optimality principle with a functional form of It\^o's formula to derive a Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman (HJB) equation for this problem. This HJB equation is formulated in terms of Dupire's functional derivatives and involves a transport equation arising from the anticipativity of the problem.
