A Hörmander-type theorem is established for Itô processes and related backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs). A short self-contained proof is also provided for the $L^2$-theory of linear, possibly degenerate BSPDEs, in which new gradient estimates are obtained.
We establish existence, uniqueness and regularity of solution results for a class of backward stochastic partial differential equations with singular terminal condition. The equation describes the value function of non-Markovian stochastic optimal control problem in which the terminal state of the controlled process is pre-specified. The analysis of such control problems is motivated by models of optimal portfolio liquidation.
A coupled forward-backward stochastic differential system (FBSDS) is formulated in spaces of fields for the incompressible Navier-Stokes equation in the whole space. It is shown to have a unique local solution, and further if either the Reynolds number is small or the dimension of the forward stochastic differential equation is equal to two, it can be shown to have a unique global solution. These results are shown with probabilistic arguments to imply the known existence and uniqueness results for the Navier-Stokes equation, and thus provide probabilistic formulas to the latter. Related results and the maximum principle are also addressed for partial differential equations (PDEs) of Burgers' type. Moreover, from truncating the time interval of the above FBSDS, approximate solution is derived for the Navier-Stokes equation by a new class of FBSDSs and their associated PDEs; our probabilistic formula is also bridged to the probabilistic Lagrangian representations for the velocity field, given by Constantin and Iyer (Commun. Pure Appl. Math. 61: 330--345, 2008) and Zhang (Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 148: 305--332, 2010) ; finally, the solution of the Navier-Stokes equation is shown to be a critical point of controlled forward-backward stochastic differential equations.
In this paper, we are concerned with backward doubly stochastic differential evolutionary systems (BDSDESs for short). By using a variational approach based on the monotone operator theory, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solutions for BDSDESs. We also establish an Itô formula for the Banach space-valued BDSDESs.
This paper is concerned with the quasi-linear reflected backward stochastic partial differential equation (RBSPDE for short). Basing on the theory of backward stochastic partial differential equation and the parabolic capacity and potential, we first associate the RBSPDE to a variational problem, and via the penalization method, we prove the existence and uniqueness of the solution for linear RBSPDE with Lapalacian leading coefficients. With the continuity approach, we further obtain the well-posedness of general quasi-linear RBSPDEs. Related results, including Itô formulas for backward stochastic partial differential equations with random measures, the comparison principle for solutions of RBSPDEs and the connections with reflected backward stochastic differential equations and optimal stopping problems, are addressed as well.
The paper is concerned with the existence and uniqueness of a strong solution to a two-dimensional backward stochastic Navier-Stokes equation with nonlinear forcing, driven by a Brownian motion. We use the spectral approximation and the truncation and variational techniques. The methodology features an interactive analysis on basis of the regularity of the deterministic Navier-Stokes dynamics and the stochastic properties of the Itô-type diffusion processes.
In this paper we are concerned with the maximum principle for quasi-linear backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs for short) of parabolic type. We first prove the existence and uniqueness of the weak solution to quasi-linear BSPDE with the null Dirichlet condition on the lateral boundary. Then using the De Giorgi iteration scheme, we establish the maximum estimates and the global maximum principle for quasi-linear BSPDEs. To study the local regularity of weak solutions, we also prove a local maximum principle for the backward stochastic parabolic De Giorgi class.
This paper is concerned with semi-linear backward stochastic partial differential equations (BSPDEs for short) of super-parabolic type. An $L^p$-theory is given for the Cauchy problem of BSPDEs, separately for the case of $p\in (1,2]$ and for the case of $p\in (2, \infty)$. A comparison theorem is also addressed.
