A Probabilistic Scheme for Fully Nonlinear Nonlocal Parabolic PDEs with singular L\'evy measures
Abstract
We introduce a Monte Carlo scheme for fully nonlinear parabolic nonlocal PDE's whose nonlinearity in of Hamilton-Jacobi-Bellman-Isaacs (HJBI for short). We avoid the difficulties of infinite L\'evy measure by truncation of the L\'evy integral. The first result provides the convergence of the scheme for general parabolic nonlinearities. The second result provides bounds on the rate of convergence for concave (or equivalently convex) nonlinearities. For both results, it is crucial to choose truncation of the infinite L\'evy measure appropriately dependent on the time discretization. We also introduce a Monte Carlo Quadrature method to approximate the nonlocal term in the HJBI nonlinearity.
