Abstract

The theory of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) was pioneered by Pardoux and Peng [PaPe90]. It became now very popular, and is an important field of research due to its connections with stochastic control, mathematical finance, and partial differential equations. BSDEs provide a probabilistic representation of nonlinear PDEs, which extends the famous Feynman-Kac formula for linear PDEs. As a consequence, BSDEs can be used for designing numerical algorithms to nonlinear PDEs.
