Reflected Mean-Field Backward Stochastic Differential Equations. Approximation and Associated Nonlinear PDEs

preprint2012arXivOpen access

Abstract

Mathematical mean-field approaches have been used in many fields, not only in Physics and Chemistry, but also recently in Finance, Economics, and Game Theory. In this paper we will study a new special mean-field problem in a purely probabilistic method, to characterize its limit which is the solution of mean-field backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) with reflections. On the other hand, we will prove that this type of reflected mean-field BSDEs can also be obtained as the limit equation of the mean-field BSDEs by penalization method. Finally, we give the probabilistic interpretation of the nonlinear and nonlocal partial differential equations with the obstacles by the solutions of reflected mean-field BSDEs.
