Linear-Quadratic Pareto Cooperative Game for Mean-Field Backward Stochastic System

This paper focuses on a Pareto cooperative differential game with a linear mean-field backward stochastic system and a quadratic form cost functional. Based on a weighted sum optimality method, the Pareto game is equivalently converted to an optimal control problem. In the first place,the feedback form of Pareto optimal strategy is derived by virtue of decoupling technology, which is represented by four Riccati equations, a mean-field forward stochastic differential equation(MF-FSDE),and a mean-field backward stochastic differential equation(MF-BSDE). In addition, the corresponding Pareto optimal solution is further obtained. Finally, the author solves a problem in mathematical finance to illustrate the application of the theoretical results.

GENERAL COUPLED MEAN-FIELD REFLECTED FORWARD-BACKWARD STOCHASTIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS

In this paper we consider general coupled mean-field reflected forward-backward stochastic differential equations(FBSDEs),whose coefficients not only depend on the solution but also on the law of the solution.The first part of the paper is devoted to the existence and the uniqueness of solutions for such general mean-field reflected backward stochastic differential equations(BSDEs)under Lipschitz conditions,and for the one-dimensional case a comparison theorem is studied.With the help of this comparison result,we prove the existence of the solution for our mean-field reflected forward-backward stochastic differential equation under continuity assumptions.It should be mentioned that,under appropriate assumptions,we prove the uniqueness of this solution as well as that of a comparison theorem for mean-field reflected FBSDEs in a non-trivial manner.

ANTICIPATED BACKWARD STOCHASTIC VOLTERRA INTEGRAL EQUATIONS WITH JUMPS AND APPLICATIONS TO DYNAMIC RISK MEASURES

In this paper, we focus on anticipated backward stochastic Volterra integral equations(ABSVIEs) with jumps. We solve the problem of the well-posedness of so-called M-solutions to this class of equation, and analytically derive a comparison theorem for them and for the continuous equilibrium consumption process. These continuous equilibrium consumption processes can be described by the solutions to this class of ABSVIE with jumps.Motivated by this, a class of dynamic risk measures induced by ABSVIEs with jumps are discussed.

H_2/H_∞ CONTROL PROBLEMS OF BACKWARD STOCHASTIC SYSTEMS

This paper is concerned with the mixed H_2/H_∞ control problem for a new class of stochastic systems with exogenous disturbance signal.The most distinguishing feature,compared with the existing literatures,is that the systems are described by linear backward stochastic differential equations(BSDEs).The solution to this problem is obtained completely and explicitly by using an approach which is based primarily on the completion-of-squares technique.Two equivalent expressions for the H_2/H_∞ control are presented.Contrary to forward deterministic and stochastic cases,the solution to the backward stochastic H_2/H_∞ control is no longer feedback of the current state;rather,it is feedback of the entire history of the state.

MULTI-DIMENSIONAL REFLECTED BACKWARD STOCHASTIC DIFFERENTIAL EQUATIONS AND THE COMPARISON THEOREM

In this article, we study the multi-dimensional reflected backward stochastic differential equations. The existence and uniqueness result of the solution for this kind of equation is proved by the fixed point argument where every element of the solution is forced to stay above the given stochastic process, i.e., multi-dimensional obstacle, respectively. We also give a kind of multi-dimensional comparison theorem for the reflected BSDE and then use it as the tool to prove an existence result for the multi-dimensional reflected BSDE where the coefficient is continuous and has linear growth.

Backward stochastic Volterra integral equations——a brief survey

In this paper, we present a brief survey on the updated theory of backward stochas-tic Volterra integral equations （BSVIEs, for short）. BSVIEs are a natural generalization of backward stochastic diff erential equations （BSDEs, for short）. Some interesting motivations of studying BSVIEs are recalled. With proper solution concepts, it is possible to establish the corresponding well-posedness for BSVIEs. We also survey various comparison theorems for solutions to BSVIEs.

On existence and uniqueness of solutions to uncertain backward stochastic differential equations

This paper is concerned with a class of uncertain backward stochastic differential equations （UBSDEs） driven by both an m-dimensional Brownian motion and a d-dimensional canonical process with uniform Lipschitzian coefficients. Such equations can be useful in mod- elling hybrid systems, where the phenomena are simultaneously subjected to two kinds of un- certainties： randomness and uncertainty. The solutions of UBSDEs are the uncertain stochastic processes. Thus, the existence and uniqueness of solutions to UBSDEs with Lipschitzian coeffi- cients are proved.

A variational formula for controlled backward stochastic partial differential equations and some application

An optimal control problem for a controlled backward stochastic partial differential equation in the abstract evolution form with a Bolza type performance functional is considered. The control domain is not assumed to be convex, and all coefficients of the system are allowed to be random. A variational formula for the functional in a given control process direction is derived, by the Hamiltonian and associated adjoint system. As an application, a global stochastic maximum principle of Pontraygins type for the optimal controls is established.

Research on problem about technology insurance pricing based on backward stochastic differential equation theory

The development of Backward Stochastic Differential Equation Theory is just a thing happened in the past years. Although its development and application is far behind Forward Stochastic Differential Equation, its wide application prospect on financial mathematics gets more and more attention. The meaning of Backward Stochastic Differential Equation is that change a already-known final （usually uncertain） goal into a present certain answer to make a present resolution. But Insurance Pricing happens to know the final result, it＇ s certain that the result is uncertain, that is to say, to get out of danger or not. And then make present insurance price according to the future uncertain result. The Insurance Pricing just follows the meaning of Backward Stochastic Differential Equation. Insurance Pricing itself is also a research field sprang up in past scores of years, because insurance pricing is the indisputable core of insurance work, and gets quite a few researchers＇ attention. This article adopts backward stochastic differential equation theory and do research on problem about technology insurance pricing.
