Neumann Boundary Problem for Parabolic Partial Differential Equations with Divergence Terms (1802.07626v1)

Abstract: We prove an existence and uniqueness result for Neumann boundary problem of a parabolic partial differential equation (PDE for short) with a singular nonlinear divergence term which can only be understood in a weak sense. A probabilistic approach is applied by studying the backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs for short) corresponding to the PDEs, the solution of which turns out to be a limit of a sequence of BSDEs constructed by penalization method.
