By analogy with the theory of Backward Stochastic Differential Equations, we define Backward Stochastic Difference Equations on spaces related to discrete time, finite state processes. This paper considers these processes as constructions in their own right, not as approximations to the continuous case. We establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions under weaker assumptions than are needed in the continuous time setting, and also establish a comparison theorem for these solutions. The conditions of this theorem are shown to approximate those required in the continuous time setting. We also explore the relationship between the driver $F$ and the set of solutions; in particular, we determine under what conditions the driver is uniquely determined by the solution. Applications to the theory of nonlinear expectations are explored, including a representation result.
Connections between a system of Forward-Backward SDEs and Backward Stochastic PDEs related to the utility maximiza- tion problem is established. Besides, we derive another version of FBSDE of the same problem and prove an existence of a solution
In this paper, by virtue of Malliavin calculus, we establish a relationship between backward doubly stochastic differential equations with random coefficients and quasilinear stochastic PDEs, and thus extend the well-known nonlinear stochastic Feynman-Kac formula of Pardoux and Peng [14] to non-Markovian case.
This paper is devoted to study the asymptotic properties for the solution of decoupled forward backward stochastic differential equations with delayed generator. As an application, we establish a large deviation principe for solution of the backward equation.
We study the well solvability of nonlinear backward stochastic evolutionary equations driven by a space-time white noise. We first establish a novel a priori estimate for solution of linear backward stochastic evolutionary equations, and then give an existence and uniqueness result for nonlinear backward stochastic evolutionary equations. A dual argument plays a crucial role in the proof of these results. Finally, an example is given to illustrate the existence and uniqueness result.
Existence and uniqueness results of fully coupled forward stochastic differential equations without drifts and backward stochastic differential equations in a degenerate case are obtained for an arbitrarily large time duration.
The connection between forward backward doubly stochastic differential equations and the optimal filtering problem is established without using the Zakai's equation. The solutions of forward backward doubly stochastic differential equations are expressed in terms of conditional law of a partially observed Markov diffusion process. It then follows that the adjoint time-inverse forward backward doubly stochastic differential equations governs the evolution of the unnormalized filtering density in the optimal filtering problem.
In this paper, a class of non-Markovian forward-backward doubly stochastic systems is studied. By using the technique of functional Itô (or path-dependent) calculus, the relationship between the systems and related path-dependent quasi-linear stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs in short) is established, and the well-known nonlinear stochastic Feynman-Kac formula of Pardoux and Peng [Backward doubly stochastic differential equations and systems of quasilinear SPDEs, Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 98 (1994), pp. 209--227] is developed to the non-Markovian situation. Moreover, we obtai…
This paper is devoted to study different type of BSDE with delayed generator. We first establish an existence and uniqueness result under delayed Lipschitz condition for non homogenous backward stochastic differential equation with delayed generator. Next, existence and uniqueness result for general fully coupled forward backward stochastic differential equation with delayed coefficients has been derived.
In this paper, we prove that there exists at least one solution for the reflected forward-backward stochastic differential equation driven by G-Brownian motion satisfying the obstacle constraint with monotone coefficients.
We prove via a direct fixpoint argument the well-posedness of backward stochastic differential equations containing an additional drift driven by a path of finite $p$-variation with $p \in [1,2)$. An application to the Feynman-Kac representation of semilinear rough partial differential equations is given.
In this paper, a probabilistic interpretation for the viscosity solution of a parabolic partial differential equation is obtained by virtue of the solution of a class of quadratic backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs, for short). Furthermore, we prove the convergence and the large deviation principle for the solution of this class of quadratic BSDEs, which is associated with a family of Markov processes with the diffusion coefficients that tend to be zero.
The overarching goal of this paper is to establish a set-valued Itô's formula. As an application, we obtain the existence and uniqueness of solutions for the general set-valued backward stochastic differential equation which gives an answer to an open question proposed by Ararat et al. (C. Ararat, J. Ma and W.Q. Wu, Set-valued backward stochastic differential equation, arXiv:2007.15073).
This note aims to give an explicit solution for backward stochastic Volterra integral equations with linear time delayed generators. The process $Y$ is expressed by an integral whose kernel is explicitly given. The processes $Z$ is expressed by Hida-Malliavin derivatives involving $Y$.
Backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) belong nowadays to the most frequently studied equations in stochastic analysis and computational stochastics. In this paper we prove that Picard iterations of BSDEs with globally Lipschitz continuous nonlinearities converge exponentially fast to the solution. Our main result in this paper is to establish a fundamental lemma to prove the global existence and uniqueness of an adapted solution to a singular backward stochastic nonlinear Volterra integral equation (for short singular BSVIE) of order $α\in (\frac{1}{2},1)$ under a weaker condition…
We present an explicit solution triplet $(Y, Z, K)$ to the backward stochastic Volterra integral equation (BSVIE) of linear type, driven by a Brownian motion and a compensated Poisson random measure. The process $Y$ is expressed by an integral whose kernel is explicitly given. The processes $Z$ and $K$ are expressed by Hida-Malliavin derivatives involving $Y$.
This work deals with the numerical approximation of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs). We propose a new algorithm which is based on the regression-later approach and the least squares Monte Carlo method. We give some conditions under which our numerical algorithm convergences and solve two practical experiments to illustrate its performance.
