Existence and uniqueness conjecture for the random-horizon BSDE
Existence and uniqueness conjecture for the random-horizon BSDE
Let and hold, and suppose that is non-negative for every . Under Assumption , consider the BSDE
where
Existence and uniqueness conjecture. The BSDE admits a unique solution such that is bounded and is a -martingale.
This conjecture proposes that the stated assumptions suffice for existence and uniqueness without requiring the stronger regularity assumption on used earlier. The source leaves the result for future research; the preceding discussion shows that some left-continuity at the terminal time is necessary in the associated linear BSDE.
