On backward stochastic differential equations approach to valuation of American options

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

We consider the problem of valuation of American (call and put) options written on a dividend paying stock governed by the geometric Brownian motion. We show that the value function has two different but related representations: by means of a solution of some nonlinear backward stochastic differential equation and weak solution to some semilinear partial differential equation.
