Abstract: In a recent paper, Soner, Touzi and Zhang [20] have introduced a notion of second order backward stochastic differential equations (2BSDEs for short), which are naturally linked to a class of fully non-linear PDEs. They proved existence and uniqueness for a generator which is uniformly Lipschitz in the variables y and z. The aim of this paper is to extend these results to the case of a generator satisfying a monotonicity condition in y. More precisely, we prove existence and uniqueness for 2BSDEs with a generator which is Lipschitz in z and uniformly continuous with linear growth in y. Moreover, we emphasize throughout the paper the major difficulties and differences due to the 2BSDE framework.


The aim of this paper is to extend to the case of a generator satisfying a monotonicity condition starting with a recent paper of \textit{H. M. Soner} et al. [Probab. Theory Relat. Fields 153, No. 1--2, 149--190 (2012; Zbl 1252.60056)] related to second-order backward stochastic differential equations.
