We prove the existence of a weak solution to a backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) $$ Y_t=ξ+\int_t^T f(s,X_s,Y_s,Z_s)\,ds-\int_t^T Z_s\,d\wien_s$$ in a finite-dimensional space, where $f(t,x,y,z)$ is affine with respect to $z$, and satisfies a sublinear growth condition and a continuity condition This solution takes the form of a triplet $(Y,Z,L)$ of processes defined on an extended probability space and satisfying $$ Y_t=ξ+\int_t^T f(s,X_s,Y_s,Z_s)\,ds-\int_t^T Z_s\,d\wien_s-(L_T-L_t)$$ where $L$ is a continuous martingale which is orthogonal to any $\wien$. The solution is constructed on an extended probability space, using Young measures on the space of trajectories. One component of this space is the Skorokhod space D endowed with the topology S of Jakubowski.
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.
We consider a class of reflected backward doubly stochastic differential equations with time delayed generator (in short RBDSDE with time delayed generator), in this case generator at time $t$ can depend on the values of a solution in the past. Under a Lipschitz condition, we ensure the existence and uniqueness of the solution.
In this note, we study one-dimensional reflected backward doubly stochastic differential equations (RBDSDEs) with one continuous barrier and discontinuous generator (left-or right-continuous). By a comparison theorem establish here for RBDSDEs, we provide a minimal or a maximal solution to RBDSDEs
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 $Y$.
The aim of the present paper is to study the regularity properties of the solution of a backward stochastic differential equation with a monotone generator in infinite dimension. We show some applications to the nonlinear Kolmogorov equation and to stochastic optimal control.
In this paper, we focus on the solvability of a class of fractional backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs, for short) with delayed generator. In this class of equations, the generator includes not only the values of the solutions of the present but also the past. Under Lipschitz condition, the existence and uniqueness of such BSDEs are established. A comparison theorem for this class of BSDEs is also obtained.
A Class of Multi-dimensional Backward Stochastic Differential Equations with Singular Generators exhibiting Diagonally Quadratic Growth and Applications
In this paper, we study backward stochastic Volterra integral equations of type-I with time delayed generators. Under some condition (small time horizon or a Lipschitz constant), we derive an existence and uniqueness results. Next, with the help of two examples of this BSVIEs we provide this condition is necessary. However, for special class of delayed generators, the previous existence and uniqueness result hold for an arbitrary time horizon and Lipschitz constant. We end this paper by establishing under an additive assumptions, a path continuity property.
In this paper we consider two classes of backward stochastic differential equations. Firstly, under a Lipschitz-type condition on the generator of the equation, which can also be unbounded, we give sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique solution pair. The method of proof is that of Picard iterations and the resulting conditions are new. We also prove a comparison theorem. Secondly, under the linear growth and continuity assumptions on the possibly unbounded generator, we prove the existence of the solution pair. This class of equations is more general than the existing ones.
In this paper, we study the multi-dimensional backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) whose generator depends also on the mean of both variables. When the generator is diagonally quadratic, we prove that the BSDE admits a unique local solution with a fixed point argument. When the generator has a logarithmic growth of the off-diagonal elements (i.e., for each $i$, the $i$-th component of the generator has a logarithmic growth of the $j$-th row $z^j$ of the variable $z$ for each $j \neq i$), we give a new apriori estimate and obtain the existence and uniqueness of the global solution…
In this paper, we consider the backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with generator $f(y)|z|^2,$ where the function $f$ is defined on an open interval $D$ and locally integrable. The existence and uniqueness of bounded solutions and $L^p(p\geq1)$ solutions of such BSDEs are obtained. Some comparison theorems and a converse comparison theorem of such BSDEs are established. As an application, we give a probabilistic interpretation of viscosity solution of quadratic PDEs.
The paper is concerned with adapted solution of a multi-dimensional BSDE with a "diagonally" quadratic generator, the quadratic part of whose $i$th component only depends on the $i$th row of the second unknown variable. Local and global solutions are given. In our proofs, it is natural and crucial to apply both John-Nirenberg and reverse Hölder inequalities for BMO martingales.
We deal with backward stochastic differential equations with time delayed generators. In this new type of equations, a generator at time t can depend on the values of a solution in the past, weighted with a time delay function for instance of the moving average type. We prove existence and uniqueness of a solution for a sufficiently small time horizon or for a sufficiently small Lipschitz constant of a generator. We give examples of BSDE with time delayed generators that have multiple solutions or that have no solutions. We show for some special class of generators that existence and uniquenes…
This article is devoted to study the class of backward stochastic differential equation with delayed generator. We suppose the terminal value and the generator to be $L^{p}$-integrable with $p>1$. We derive a new type of estimation related to this BSDE. Next, we establish the existence and uniqueness result in two ways. First, an approximation technics used by Briand et al. (Stochastic Process. Appl. 108 (2003) 109-129) and hence the well-know Picard iterative procedure. Using Picard iterative procedure, we revisit the result of Dos Reis et al. (Stochastic Process. Appl. 121 (9) (2011) 2114-21…
In this paper, we consider the Cauchy problem of semi-linear degenerate backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs in short) under general settings without technical assumptions on the coefficients. For the solution of semi-linear degenerate BSPDE, we first give a proof for its existence and uniqueness, as well as regularity. Then the connection between semi-linear degenerate BSPDEs and forward backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs in short) is established, which can be regarded as an extension of Feynman-Kac formula to non-Markov frame.
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
Our aim is to study the following new type of multivalued backward stochastic differential equation: \[ \left\{\begin{array} [c]{r}-dY\left(t\right) +\partialφ\left(Y\left(t\right)\right) dt\ni F\left(t,Y\left(t\right),Z\left(t\right),Y_{t},Z_{t}\right) dt+Z\left(t\right) dW\left(t\right),\;0\leq t\leq T,\medskip\\ \multicolumn{1}{l}{Y\left(T\right) =ξ,}\end{array} \right. \] where $\partialφ$ is the subdifferential of a convex function and $\left(Y_{t},Z_{t}\right):=(Y(t+θ),Z(t+θ))_{θ\in\lbrack-T,0]}$ represent the past values of the solution over the interval $\left[ 0,t\right] $. Our result…
Given $p \in (1, 2)$, we study $L^p$-solutions of a multi-dimensional backward stochastic differential equation with jumps (BSDEJ) whose generator may not be Lipschitz continuous in $(y,z)-$variables. We show that such a BSDEJ with a p-integrable terminal data admits a unique $L^p$ solution by approximating the monotonic generator by a sequence of Lipschitz generators via convolution with mollifiers and using a stability result.
This paper is concerned with the switching game of a one-dimensional backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE). The associated Bellman-Isaacs equation is a system of matrix-valued BSDEs living in a special unbounded convex domain with reflection on the boundary along an oblique direction. In this paper, we show the existence of an adapted solution to this system of BSDEs with oblique reflection by the penalization method, the monotone convergence, and the a priori estimates.
In this paper, we establish a local representation theorem for generators of reflected backward stochastic differential equations (RBSDE), whose generators are continuous with linear growth. It generalizes some known representation theorems for generators of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDE). As some applications, a general converse comparison theorem for RBSDE is obtained and some properties of RBSDE are discussed.
For a backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE, for short), when the generator is not progressively measurable, it might not admit adapted solutions, shown by an example. However, for backward stochastic Volterra integral equations (BSVIEs, for short), the generators are allowed to be anticipating. This gives, among other things, an essential difference between BSDEs and BSVIEs. Under some proper conditions, the well-posedness of such kinds of BSVIEs is established. Further, the results are extended to path-dependent BSVIEs, in which the generators can depend on the future paths of unkn…

We define fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equations on spaces related to continuous time, finite state Markov Chains. Existence and uniqueness results of the fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equations on Markov Chains are obtained.
In this paper, a systematic investigation is carried out for the general solvability of multi-dimensional backward stochastic Volterra integral equations (BSVIEs) with the generators being super-linear in the adjustment variable $Z$. Two major situations are discussed: (i) When the free term is bounded with the dependence of the generator on $Z$ being of ``diagonally strictly'' quadratic growth and being sub-quadratically coupled with off-diagonal components; (ii) When the free term is unbounded having exponential moments of arbitrary order with the dependence of the generator on $Z$ being dia…
This paper extends the idea of E.Gobet, J.P.Lemor and X.Warin from the setting of Backward Stochastic Differential Equations to that of Backward Doubly Stochastic Differential equations. We propose some numerical approximation scheme of these equations introduced by E.Pardoux and S.Peng.
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.
In this paper, we study backward doubly stochastic integral equations of the Volterra type (BDSIEVs in short). Under uniform Lipschitz assumptions, we establish an existence and uniqueness result.
In this paper, we consider the fully coupled forward-backward stochastic functional differential equations (FBSFDEs) with stochastic functional differential equations as the forward equations and the generalized anticipated backward stochastic differential equations as the backward equations. We will prove the existence and uniqueness theorem for FBSFDEs. As an application, we deal with a quadratic optimal control problem for functional stochastic systems, and get the explicit form of the optimal control by virtue of FBSFDEs.
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 prove an existence and uniqueness result for generalized backward doubly stochastic differential equations driven by Lévy processes with non-Lipschitz assumptions.
We study reflected solutions of one-dimensional backward doubly stochastic differential equations (BDSDEs in short). The "reflected" keeps the solution above a given stochastic process. We get the uniqueness and existence by penalization. For the existence of backward stochastic integral, our proof is different from [KKPPQ] slightly. We also obtain a comparison theorem for reflected BDSDEs.
We prove the existence of the unique solution of a general Backward Stochastic Differential Equation with quadratic growth driven by martingales. Some kind of comparison theorem is also proved.
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.
This paper is devoted to solving a multidimensional backward stochastic differential equation with a general time interval, where the generator is uniformly continuous in $(y,z)$ non-uniformly with respect to $t$. By establishing some results on deterministic backward differential equations with general time intervals, and by virtue of Girsanov's theorem and convolution technique, we establish a new existence and uniqueness result for solutions of this kind of backward stochastic differential equations, which extends the results of Hamadene (2003) and Fan, Jiang, Tian (2011) to the general tim…
The theory of backward SDEs extends the predictable representation property of Brownian motion to the nonlinear framework, thus providing a path-dependent analog of fully nonlinear parabolic PDEs. In this paper, we consider backward SDEs, their reflected version, and their second-order extension, in the context where the final data and the generator satisfy $L^1$-type of integrability condition. Our main objective is to provide the corresponding existence and uniqueness results for general Lipschitz generators. The uniqueness holds in the so-called Doob class of processes, simultaneously under…
Under quasi-monotone assumptions for coefficients, we show one kind of comparison theorem for multi-dimensional\textbf{\}backward doubly stochastic differential equations on infinite horizon. An example is given as well.
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…
In this paper, a class of generalized backward doubly stochastic differential equations whose coefficient contains the subdifferential operators of two convex functions (also called generalized backward doubly stochastic variational inequalities) are considered. By means of a penalization argument based on Yosida approximation, we establish the existence and uniqueness of the solution. As an application, this result is used to derive existence result of stochastic viscosity solution for a class of multivalued stochastic Dirichlet-Neumann problems.
In this paper, we deal with a class of one-dimensional reflected backward doubly stochastic differential equations with one continuous lower barrier. We derive the existence and uniqueness of solutions for these equations with Lipschitz coefficients.
We study the existence of a unique solution to semilinear fractional backward doubly stochastic differential equation driven by a Brownian motion and a fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter less than 1/2. Here the stochastic integral with respect to the fractional Brownian motion is the extended divergence operator and the one with respect to Brownian motion is Itô's backward integral. For this we use the technique developed by R.Buckdahn to analyze stochastic differential equations on the Wiener space, which is based on the Girsanov theorem and the Malliavin calculus, and we reduce …
We first state a special type of Itô formula involving stochastic integrals of both standard and fractional Brownian motions. Then we use Doss-Sussman transformation to establish the link between backward doubly stochastic differential equations, driven by both standard and fractional Brownian motions, and backward stochastic differential equations, driven only by standard Brownian motions. Following the same technique, we further study associated nonlinear stochastic partial differential equations driven by fractional Brownian motions and partial differential equations with stochastic coeffic…
In this paper, we deal with a class of multivalued backward doubly stochastic differential equations with time delayed coefficients. Based on a slight extension of the existence and uniqueness of solutions for backward doubly stochastic differential equations with time delayed coefficients, we establish the existence and uniqueness of solutions for these equations by means of Yosida approximation.
We define some approximation schemes for different kinds of generalized backward stochastic differential systems, considered in the Markovian framework. We propose a mixed approximation scheme for a decoupled system of forward reflected SDE and backward stochastic variational inequality. We use an Euler scheme type, combined with Yosida approximation techniques.
We propose to study a new type of Backward stochastic differential equations driven by a family of Itô's processes. We prove existence and uniqueness of the solution, and investigate stability and comparison theorem.
By the methods of probability and duality technique, we give some comparison theorems for the solutions of infinite horizon forward-backwad stochastic differential equations.
In this paper we study reflected backward stochastic differential equations with a continuous, linear growth coefficient and two barriers which belong to L^2. We prove that there exists at least by penalization method.
In this paper, we provide a one-to-one correspondence between the solution Y of a BSDE with singular terminal condition and the solution H of a BSDE with singular generator. This result provides the precise asymptotic behavior of Y close to the final time and enlarges the uniqueness result to a wider class of generators.
It is known that Markovian forward-backward stochastic differential equations provide nonlinear Feynman-Kac representation formulae for semilinear parabolic PDEs. We show that non-Markovian forward-backward stochastic differential equations provide nonlinear Feynman-Kac formulae for semilinear path-dependent PDEs. This extends the result proved in Ekren, Keller, Touzi, and Zhang [4] to the case with a possibly degenerate diffusion coefficient in the forward dynamics.
This paper is devoted to a general solvability of a multi-dimensional backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) of a diagonally quadratic generator $g(t,y,z)$, by relaxing the assumptions of \citet{HuTang2016SPA} on the generator and terminal value. More precisely, the generator $g(t,y,z)$ can have more general growth and continuity in $y$ in the local solution; while in the global solution, the generator $g(t,y,z)$ can have a skew sub-quadratic but in addition "strictly and diagonally" quadratic growth in the second unknown variable $z$, or the terminal value can be unbounded but the g…
In this paper{\}we prove the existence of a solution for reflected backward doubly stochastic differential equations with poisson jumps (RBDSDEPs) with one continuous barrier where the generator is continuous and also we study the RBDSDEPs with a linear growth condition and left continuity in $y$ on the generator. By a comparison theorem established here for this type of equation we provide a minimal or a maximal solution to RBDSDEPs.
In this paper we investigate classical solution of a semi-linear system of backward stochastic integral partial differential equations driven by a Brownian motion and a Poisson point process. By proving an Itô-Wentzell formula for jump diffusions as well as an abstract result of stochastic evolution equations, we obtain the stochastic integral partial differential equation for the inverse of the stochastic flow generated by a stochastic differential equation driven by a Brownian motion and a Poisson point process. By composing the random field generated by the solution of a backward stochastic…
