Abstract We consider the integrability problem of an exponential process with unbounded coefficients. The integrability is established under weaker conditions of Kazamaki type, which complements the results of Yong obtained under a Novikov type condition. As applications, we consider the solvability of linear backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) and market completeness, the solvability of a Riccati BSDE and optimal investment, all in the setting of unbounded coefficients.

In this paper, we consider two classes of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs). First, under a Lipschitz-type condition on the generator of the equation, which can also be unbounded, we give sufficient conditions for the existence of a unique solution pair. The method of proof is that of Picard iterations and the resulting conditions are new. We also prove a comparison theorem. Second, under the linear growth and continuity assumptions on the possibly unbounded generator, we prove the existence of the solution pair. This class of equations is more general than the existing ones.

We consider systems of backward stochastic differential equations with càdlàg upper barrier [Formula: see text] and oblique reflection from below driven by an increasing continuous function [Formula: see text]. Our equations are defined on general probability spaces with a filtration satisfying merely the usual assumptions of right continuity and completeness. We assume that the pair [Formula: see text] satisfies a Mokobodzki-type condition. We prove the existence of a solution for integrable terminal conditions and integrable quasi-monotone generators. Applications to the optimal switching problem are given.

We prove an existence and uniqueness result for a class of backward stochastic differential equations (BSDE) with dissipative drift in Hilbert spaces. We also give examples of stochastic partial differential equations which can be solved with our result.
