$L^p$-Solutions and Comparison Results for L\'evy Driven BSDEs in a Monotonic, General Growth Setting

Abstract

We present a unified approach to $L^p$-solutions ($p > 1$) of multidimensional backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs) driven by L\'evy processes and more general filtrations. New existence, uniqueness and comparison results are obtained. The generator functions obey a time-dependent extended monotonicity (Osgood) condition in the $y$-variable and have general growth in $y$. Within this setting, the results generalize those of Royer (2006), Yin and Mao (2008), Yao (2017), Kruse and Popier (2016/2017) and Geiss and Steinicke (2018).
