Infinite horizon quadratic backward stochastic differential equations driven by $G$-Brownian motion

The aim is to prove the well-posedness of infinite horizon backward stochastic differential equations driven by $G$-Brownian motion ($G$-BSDEs) with quadratic generators. To this end, we provide a full construction of explicit solutions to linear $G$-BSDEs with unbounded coefficients and the linearization method under the quadratic assumption. In addition, the comparison theorems for both finite and infinite horizon $G$-BSDEs are established.

Mean-reflected $G$-BSDEs with multi-variate constraints

In this paper, we study the multi-dimensional reflected backward stochastic differential equation driven by $G$-Brownian motion ($G$-BSDE) with a multi-variate constraint on the $G$-expectation of its solution. The generators are diagonally dependent on $Z$ and on all $Y$-components. We obtain the existence and uniqueness result via a fixed-point argumentation.

General Mean Reflected BSDEs

The present paper is devoted to the study of backward stochastic differential equations with mean reflection formulated by Briand et al. [7]. We investigate the solvability of a generalized mean reflected BSDE, whose driver also depends on the distribution of the solution term $Y$. Using a fixed-point argument, BMO martingale theory and the $θ$-method, we establish the existence and uniqueness result for such BSDEs in several typical situations, including the case where the driver is quadratic with bounded or unbounded terminal condition.

Quadratic Mean-Field Reflected BSDEs

In this paper, we analyze mean-field reflected backward stochastic differential equations when the driver has quadratic growth in the second unknown $z$. Using linearization technique and BMO martingale theory, we first apply fixed point argument to establish uniqueness and existence result for the case with bounded terminal condition and obstacle. Then, with the help of a $θ$-method, we develop a successive approximation procedure to remove the boundedness condition on the terminal condition and obstacle when the generator is concave (or convex) with respect to the 2nd unknown $z$

Probabilistic approach to singular perturbations of viscosity solutions to nonlinear parabolic PDEs

In this paper, we prove a convergence theorem for singular perturbations problems for a class of fully nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations with ergodic structures. The limit function is represented as the viscosity solution to a fully nonlinear degenerate PDEs. Our approach is mainly based on G-stochastic analysis argument. As a byproduct, we also establish the averaging principle for stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion with two time-scales. The results extend Khasminskii's averaging principle to nonlinear case.

Quadratic $G$-BSDEs with convex generators and unbounded terminal conditions

In this paper, we first study one-dimensional quadratic backward stochastic differential equations driven by $G$-Brownian motions ($G$-BSDEs) with unbounded terminal values. With the help of a $θ$-method of Briand and Hu [4] and nonlinear stochastic analysis techniques, we propose an approximation procedure to prove existence and uniqueness result when the generator is convex (or concave) and terminal value is of exponential moments of arbitrary order. Finally, we also establish the well-posedness of multi-dimensional G-BSDEs with diagonally quadratic generators.

Maximum principle for stochastic recursive optimal control problem under model uncertainty

In this paper, we consider a stochastic recursive optimal control problem under model uncertainty. In this framework, the cost function is described by solutions of a family of backward stochastic differential equations. With the help of the linearization techniques and weak convergence methods, we derive the corresponding stochastic maximum principle. Moreover, a linear quadratic robust control problem is also studied.

BSDEs driven by $G$-Brownian motion with uniformly continuous generators

The present paper is devoted to investigating the existence and uniqueness of solutions to a class of non-Lipschitz scalar valued backward stochastic differential equations driven by $G$-Brownian motion ($G$-BSDEs). In fact, when the generators are Lipschitz continuous in $y$ and uniformly continuous in $z$, we construct the unique solution to such equations by monotone convergence argument. The comparison theorem and related Feynman-Kac formula are stated as well.

On the exit times of SDEs driven by $G$-Brownian motion

This paper is devoted to studying the properties of the exit times of stochastic differential equations driven by $G$-Brownian motion ($G$-SDEs). In particular, we prove that the exit times of $G$-SDEs has the quasi-continuity property. As an application, we give a probabilistic representation for a large class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations with Dirichlet boundary.

Stochastic optimal control problem with infinite horizon driven by G-Brownian motion

The present paper considers a stochastic optimal control problem, in which the cost function is defined through a backward stochastic differential equation with infinite horizon driven by G-Brownian motion. Then we study the regularities of the value function and establish the dynamic programming principle. Moreover, we prove that the value function is the uniqueness viscosity solution of the related HJBI equation.

Quadratic BSDEs with mean reflection

The present paper is devoted to the study of the well-posedness of BSDEs with mean reflection whenever the generator has quadratic growth in the $z$ argument. This work is the sequel of Briand et al. [BSDEs with mean reflection, arXiv:1605.06301] in which a notion of BSDEs with mean reflection is developed to tackle the super-hedging problem under running risk management constraints. By the contraction mapping argument, we first prove that the quadratic BSDE with mean reflection admits a unique deterministic flat local solution on a small time interval whenever the terminal value is bounded. Moreover, we build the global solution on the whole time interval by stitching local solutions when the generator is uniformly bounded with respect to the $y$ argument.

Quasi-continuous random variables and processes under the G-expectation framework

In this paper, we first use PDE techniques and probabilistic methods to identify a kind of quasi-continuous random variables. Then we give a characterization of the $G$-integrable processes and get a kind of quasi-continuous processes by Krylov's estimates. This result is useful for the development of $G$-stochastic analysis theory. Moreover, it also provides a tool for the study of the non-Markovian Itô processes.

Ergodic BSDEs driven by G-Brownian motion and their applications

The present paper considers a new kind of backward stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion, which is called ergodic G-BSDEs. Firstly, the well-posedness of G-BSDEs with infinite horizon is given by a new linearization method. Then, the Feynman-Kac formula for fully nonlinear elliptic partial differential equations is established. Moreover, a new probabilistic approach is introduced to prove the uniqueness of viscosity solution to elliptic PDEs in the whole space. Finally, we obtain the existence of solution to G-EBSDE and some applications are also stated.

Some sample path properties of G-Brownian motion

In this paper, we shall study the basic absolute properties of $G$-Brownian motion, i.e., those properties which hold for q.s. $ω$. These include the characterization of the zero set and the local maxima of the $G$-Brownian motion paths. We also show that the indicator function of $G$-Brownian motion is in $\mathbb{L}_G^1(Ω)$, which is an useful tool for the study of $G$-expectation theory.

Invariant and ergodic measures for G-diffusion processes

In this paper we study the problems of invariant and ergodic measures under G-expectation framework. In particular, the stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion have the unique invariant and ergodic measures. Moreover, the invariant and ergodic measures of G-SDEs are also sublinear expectations. However, the invariant measures may not coincide with ergodic measures, which is different from the classical case.

BSDE, Path-dependent PDE and Nonlinear Feynman-Kac Formula

In this paper, we introduce a type of path-dependent quasilinear (parabolic) partial differential equations in which the (continuous) paths on an interval [0,t] becomes the basic variables in the place of classical variables (t,x). This new type of PDE are formulated through a classical backward stochastic differential equation (BSDEs, for short) in which the terminal values and the generators are allowed to be general functions of Brownian paths. In this way we have established a new type of nonlinear Feynman-Kac formula for a general non-Markovian BSDE. Some main properties of regularities for this new PDE was obtained.
