We prove limit theorems for solutions of backward stochastic differential equations of the above form. Those limit theorems permit us to deduce that any solution of that equation is the limit, in a strong sense, of a sequence of semi-martingales, which are solutions of ordinary BSDEs of the form Y t = ξ + Z t T f ( Y s ) Z s 2 d s m Z t T Z s d W s . A comparison theorem for BSDEs involving measures is discussed. As an application we obtain, with the help of the connection between BSDE and PDE, some corresponding limit theorems for a class of singular non-linear PDEs and a new probabilistic proof of the comparison theorem for PDEs.","PeriodicalId":289792,"journal":{"name":"Stochastics and Stochastic Reports","volume":"85 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120841913","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Under nondegeneracy assumptions on the diffusion coefficient (that may be nonconstant) we prove an analogue of the well-known Bismut-Elworthy formula. Next, we consider a nonlinear version of the Kolmogorov equation, i.e. a deterministic quasilinear equation associated to the system according to Pardoux, E and Peng, S.

(Eds.), Stochastic Partial Differential Equations and Their Applications , Lecture Notes in Control Inf. Sci., Vol. 176, pp. 200-217. Springer: Berlin. The Bismut-Elworthy formula is applied to prove smoothing effect, i.e. to prove existence and uniqueness of a solution which is differentiable with respect to the space variable, even if the initial datum and (some) coefficients of the equation are not. The results are then applied to the Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman equation of stochastic optimal control. This way we are able to characterize optimal controls by feedback laws for a class of infinite-dimensional control systems, including in particular the stochastic heat equation with state-dependent diffusion coefficient.","PeriodicalId":289792,"journal":{"name":"Stochastics and Stochastic Reports","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2002-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124664864","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
