Reflected forward–backward stochastic differential equations and related PDEs

Abstract

In this article, we study a type of coupled reflected forward–backward stochastic differential equations (reflected FBSDEs, for short) with continuous coefficients, including the existence and the uniqueness of the solution of our reflected FBSDEs as well as the comparison theorem. We prove that the solution of our reflected FBSDEs gives a probabilistic interpretation for the viscosity solution of an obstacle problem for a quasilinear parabolic partial differential equation.
