Deep learning algorithms for FBSDEs with jumps: Applications to option pricing and a MFG model for smart grids (2401.03245v2)

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce various machine learning solvers for (coupled) forward-backward systems of stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs) driven by a Brownian motion and a Poisson random measure. We provide a rigorous comparison of the different algorithms and demonstrate their effectiveness in various applications, such as cases derived from pricing with jumps and mean-field games. In particular, we show the efficiency of the deep-learning algorithms to solve a coupled multi-dimensional FBSDE system driven by a time-inhomogeneous jump process with stochastic intensity, which describes the Nash equilibria for a specific mean-field game (MFG) problem for which we also provide the complete theoretical resolution. More precisely, we develop an extension of the MFG model for smart grids introduced in Alasseur, Campi, Dumitrescu and Zeng (Annals of Operations Research, 2023) to the case when the random jump times correspond to the jump times of a doubly Poisson process. We first provide an existence result of an equilibria and derive its semi-explicit characterization in terms of a system of FBSDEs in the linear-quadratic setting. We then compare the MFG solution to the optimal strategy of a central planner and provide several numerical illustrations using the deep-learning solvers presented in the first part of the paper.
