Abstract Backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) appear in many problems in stochastic optimal control theory, mathematical finance, insurance and economics. This work deals with the numerical approximation of the class of Markovian BSDEs where the terminal condition is a functional of a Brownian motion. Using Hermite martingales, we show that the problem of solving a BSDE is identical to solving a countable infinite-dimensional system of ordinary differential equations (ODEs). The family of ODEs belongs to the class of stiff ODEs, where the associated functional is one-sided Lipschitz. On this basis, we derive a numerical scheme and provide numerical applications.

We discuss a new type of fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) whose coefficients depend on the states of the solution processes as well as their expected values, and we call them fully coupled mean-field forward-backward stochastic differential equations (mean-field FBSDEs). We first prove the existence and the uniqueness theorem of such mean-field FBSDEs under some certain monotonicity conditions and show the continuity property of the solutions with respect to the parameters. Then we discuss the stochastic optimal control problems of mean-field FBSDEs. The stochastic maximum principles are derived and the related mean-field linear quadratic optimal control problems are also discussed.

We discuss a quadratic criterion optimal control problem for stochastic linear system with delay in both state and control variables. This problem will lead to a kind of generalized forward-backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) with Itô’s stochastic delay equations as forward equations and anticipated backward stochastic differential equations as backward equations. Especially, we present the optimal feedback regulator for the time delay system via a new type of Riccati equations and also apply to a population optimal control problem.

We consider the stochastic optimal control problems under G-expectation. Based on the theory of backward stochastic differential equations driven by G-Brownian motion, which was introduced in Hu et al. (2012), we can investigate the more general stochastic optimal control problems under G-expectation than that were constructed in Zhang (2011). Then we obtain a generalized dynamic programming principle, and the value function is proved to be a viscosity solution of a fully nonlinear second-order partial differential equation.

<abstract><p>The paper is concerned with a class of stochastic differential equations in infinite dimensional Hilbert space with random coefficients driven by Teugels martingales which are more general processes and the corresponding optimal control problems. Here Teugels martingales are a family of pairwise strongly orthonormal martingales associated with Lévy processes (see Nualart and Schoutens <sup>[<xref ref-type="bibr" rid="b21">21</xref>]</sup>). There are three major ingredients. The first is to prove the existence and uniqueness of the solutions by continuous dependence theorem of solutions combining with the parameter extension method. The second is to establish the stochastic maximum principle and verification theorem for our optimal control problem by the classic convex variation method and dual techniques. The third is to represent an example of a Cauchy problem for a controlled stochastic partial differential equation driven by Teugels martingales which our theoretical results can solve.</p></abstract>
