Backward Stochastic Differential Equations in Finance

TL;DR: In this article, different properties of backward stochastic differential equations and their applications to finance are discussed. But the main focus of this paper is on the theory of contingent claim valuation, especially cases with constraints.

Discrete-time approximation and Monte-Carlo simulation of backward stochastic differential equations

TL;DR: In this paper, a discrete-time approximation for decoupled forward-backward stochastic dierential equations is proposed, and the L p norm of the error is shown to be of the order of the time step.

Monotonic limit theorem of BSDE and nonlinear decomposition theorem of Doob–Meyers type

TL;DR: In this article, the authors obtained the following limit theorem: if a sequence of RCLL supersolutions of a backward stochastic differential equations (BSDE) converges monotonically up to (y, z) with E[sup t istg |y� t istg ] < ∞, then the supersolution itself is a RCLL of the same BSDE (Theorem 2.4 and 3.6).

Nonlinear Expectations, Nonlinear Evaluations and Risk Measures

TL;DR: In this article, the authors propose a mechanism of evaluating risky assets using axiomatic assumptions for evaluating derivatives of derivatives, which is based on the Brownian Filtration Consistent Evaluations and Expectations.

Backward stochastic differential equations with reflection and Dynkin games

TL;DR: In this article, the authors established existence and uniqueness results for adapted solutions of backward stochastic differential equations with two reflecting barriers, generalizing the work of El Karoui, Kapoudjian, Pardoux, Peng and Quenez.

User’s guide to viscosity solutions of second order partial differential equations

TL;DR: The notion of viscosity solutions of scalar fully nonlinear partial differential equations of second order provides a framework in which startling comparison and uniqueness theorems, existence theorem, and continuous dependence may now be proved by very efficient and striking arguments as discussed by the authors.

Adapted solution of a backward stochastic differential equation

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors considered the problem of finding an adapted pair of processes with values in Rd and Rd×k, respectively, which solves an equation of the form: x(t) + ∫ t 1 f(s, x(s), y(s)) ds + ∪ t 1 [g(m, x, s, g(m)) + y(m)] dW s = X.

Stochastic differential utility

TL;DR: In this article, a stochastic differential formulation of recursive utility is given sufficient conditions for existence, uniqueness, time consistency, monotonicity, continuity, risk aversion, concavity, and other properties.
