A regression-based Monte Carlo method to solve two-dimensional forward backward stochastic differential equations

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to investigate the numerical solutions to two-dimensional forward backward stochastic differential equations(FBSDEs). Based on the Fourier cos-cos transform, the approximations of conditional expectations and their errors are studied with conditional characteris...
