Abstract
We study optimal stopping problems for some functionals of Brownian motion in the case when the decision whether or not to stop before (or at) time $t$ is allowed to be based on the $\delta$-advanced information ${\cal F}_{t+\delta}$, where ${\cal F}_s$ is the $\sigma$-algebra generated by Brownian motion up to time $s$, $s\ge -\delta$, $\delta>0$ being a fixed constant. Our approach involves the forward integral and the Malliavin calculus for Brownian motion.
