Abstract

We consider a system of fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equations. First we generalize the results of Pardoux-Tang [7] concerning the regularity of the solutions with respect to initial conditions. Then, we prove that in some particular cases this system leads to a probabilistic representation of solutions of a second-order PDE whose second order coefficients depend on the gradient of the solution. We then give some examples in dimension 1 and dimension 2 for which the assumptions are easy to check.
