 esses under quasi-hyperbolic discounting are studied. This type of discoun
 ting nicely models human behaviour\, which is time-inconsistent in the lon
 g run. The decision maker has preferences changing in time. Therefore\, th
 e standard approach based on the Bellman optimality principle fails. Withi
 n a dynamic game-theoretic framework\, the existence of randomised station
 ary Markov perfect equilibria for a large class of Markov decision process
 es with transitions having a density function is proved. Moreover\, under 
 some additional conditions\, this equilibrium can be replaced by a determi
 nistic one. During the talk many examples will be discussed to illustrate 
 our results\, including a portfolio selection model with quasi-hyperbolic 
 discounting.\n
