We study the optimal stopping problem for dynamic risk measures represented by Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (BSDEs) with jumps and its relation with reflected BSDEs (RBSDEs). The financial position is given by an RCLL adapted process. We first state some properties of RBSDEs with...

We propose an equilibrium framework within which to price financial securities written on non- tradable underlyings such as temperature indices. We analyze a financial market with a finite set of agents whose preferences are described by a convex dynamic risk measure generated by the solution of...

In this paper we study Jensen’s inequality under quadratic g-expectation, i.e., the expectation generated by backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) with generator of quadratic growth in its component z. In particular, we define a new kind of convexity, the C-convexity, via a second...

We study a class of ergodic BSDEs related to PDEs with Neumann boundary conditions. The randomness of the driver is given by a forward process under weakly dissipative assumptions with an invertible and bounded diffusion matrix. Furthermore, this forward process is reflected in a convex subset...

In this paper, we consider the problem of mean–variance hedging of a defaultable claim. We assume the underlying assets are jump processes driven by Brownian motion and default processes. Using the dynamic programming principle, we link the existence of the solution of the mean–variance...

We propose a probabilistic numerical algorithm to solve Backward Stochastic Differential Equations (BSDEs) with nonnegative jumps, a class of BSDEs introduced in [9] for representing fully nonlinear HJB equations. In particular, this allows us to numerically solve stochastic control problems...

We study the existence of solutions to backward stochastic differential equations with drivers f(t,W,y,z) that are convex in z. We assume f to be Lipschitz in y and W but do not make growth assumptions with respect to z. We first show the existence of a unique solution (Y,Z) with bounded Z if...

In this paper we study backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) driven by the compensated random measure associated to a given pure jump Markov process X on a general state space K. We apply these results to prove well-posedness of a class of nonlinear parabolic differential equations...
