The paper introduces Frictive Policy Optimization as a risk-sensitive epistemic control framework for LLM alignment that treats interventions like clarification, verification, and refusal as explicit actions to improve downstream belief quality rather than immediate rewards.

Proposes OPAC for trajectory-level offline RL achieving 𝓣O(H^{2}√(C_sa(π*)/n)) bounds with matching lower bound, plus conditions for tractability in generalized nonlinear outcome settings.
State augmentation converts static risk measures on total cost into dynamic programs, yielding sample-complexity bounds for risk-averse MDPs and stochastic optimal control under φ-divergence robustness.
