Abstract: We study the following backward stochastic differential equation on finite time horizon driven by an integer-valued random measure mu on mathbbR+imesE, where E is a Lusin space, with compensator u(dt,dx)=dAt,phit(dx): [ Y_t = xi + int_{(t,T]} f(s,Y_{s-},Z_s(cdot)), d A_s - int_{(t,T]} int_E Z_s(x) , (mu- u)(ds,dx),qquad 0leq tleq T. ] The generator f satisfies, as usual, a uniform Lipschitz condition with respect to its last two arguments. In the literature, the existence and uniqueness for the above equation in the present general setting has only been established when A is continuous or deterministic. The general case, i.e. A is a right-continuous nondecreasing predictable process, is addressed in this paper. These results are relevant, for example, in the study of control problems related to Piecewise Deterministic Markov Processes (PDMPs). Indeed, when mu is the jump measure of a PDMP, then A is predictable (but not deterministic) and discontinuous, with jumps of size equal to 1.
