Higher order differentiability of solutions to backward stochastic differential equations

摘要

In this paper, we consider the differentiability in the sense of the Malliavin calculus of solutions to backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs for short). It is known that a solution is differentiable in the sense of the Malliavin calculus and the derivative is also a solution to a linear BSDE. Under additional conditions, we will show that the higher order differentiability of a solution to a BSDE and that it also becomes a solution to a linear BSDE.
