  • Title: Malliavin calculus for backward stochastic differential equations and application to numerical solutions
  • Abstract: In this work we study backward stochastic differential equations with general terminal value  and general random generator. In particular, we don’t require  the terminal value  be given by a forward diffusion equation.  The randomness of the generator does not need to be from a forward equation  neither. Motivated from applications to numerical simulations, first  we obtain the $L^p$-H\”older continuity of   the solution. Then,  we construct several numerical approximation schemes for backward stochastic differential equations  and obtain the rate of convergence of the schemes based on the obtained $L^p$-H\”older continuity results. The main tool is the   Malliavin calculus.
