The Link between Stochastic Differential Equations with Non-Markovian Coefficients and Backward Stochastic Partial Differential Equations

Abstract

In this paper, we conjecture and prove the link between stochastic differential equations with non-Markovian coefficients and nonlinear parabolic backward stochastic partial differential equations, which is an extension of such kind of link in Markovian framework to non-Markovian framework. Different from Markovian framework, where the corresponding partial differential equation is deterministic, the backward stochastic partial differential equation here has a pair of adapted solutions, and thus the link has a much different form. Moreover, two examples are given to demonstrate the applications of the derived link.
