We introduce a system of Brownian particles, each absorbed upon hitting an associated moving boundary. The boundaries are determined by the conditional probabilities of the particles being absorbed before some final time horizon, given the…

This paper addresses reflected backward stochastic differential equations (RBSDE hereafter) that take the form of \begin{eqnarray*} \begin{cases} dY_t=f(t,Y_t, Z_t)d(t\wedge\tau)+Z_tdW_t^{\tau}+dM_t-dK_t,\quad Y_{\tau}=\xi, Y\geq…

In this paper, we study reflected backward stochastic differential equation (reflected BSDE in abbreviation) with rank-based data in a Markovian framework; that is, the solution to the reflected BSDE is above a prescribed boundary process…
This paper is concerned with a Stackelberg game of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs), where the coefficients of the backward system and the cost functionals are deterministic, and the control domain is convex. Necessary and…
Considering the paradigmatic driven Brownian motion, we perform extensive numerical analysis on the performance of optimal linear-response processes far from equilibrium. We focus on the overdamped regime where exact optimal processes are…
The classical inverse first passage time problem asks whether, for a Brownian motion $(B_t)_{t\geq 0}$ and a positive random variable $\xi$, there exists a barrier $b:\mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $\mathbb{P}\{B_s>b(s), 0\leq s \leq…
