In this paper, we study a multi-dimensional backward stochastic differential equation (BSDE) with oblique reflection, which is a BSDE reflected on the boundary of a special unbounded convex domain along an oblique direction, and which arises naturally in the study of optimal switching problem. The existence of the adapted solution is obtained by the penalization method, the monotone convergence, and the a priori estimations. The uniqueness is obtained by a verification method (the first component of any adapted solution is shown to be the vector value of a switching problem for BSDEs). As applications, we apply the above results to solve the optimal switching problem for stochastic differential equations of functional type, and we give also a probabilistic interpretation of the viscosity solution to a system of variational inequalities.

In this paper, an optimal switching problem is proposed for one-dimensional reflected backward stochastic differential equations (RBSDEs, for short) where the generators, the terminal values and the barriers are all switched with positive costs. The value process is characterized by a system of multi-dimensional RBSDEs with oblique reflection, whose existence and uniqueness are by no means trivial and are therefore carefully examined. Existence is shown using both methods of the Picard iteration and penalization, but under some different conditions. Uniqueness is proved by representation either as the value process to our optimal switching problem for one-dimensional RBSDEs, or as the equilibrium value process to a stochastic differential game of switching and stopping. Finally, the switched RBSDE is interpreted as a real option.
In this paper, we are concerned with the problem of existence of solutions for generalized reflected backward stochastic differential equations (GRBSDEs for short) and generalized backward stochastic differential equations (GBSDEs for short) when the generator $fds + gdA_s$ is continuous with general growth with respect to the variable $y$ and stochastic quadratic growth with respect to the variable $z$. We deal with the case of a bounded terminal condition $xi$ and a bounded barrier $L$ as well as the case of unbounded ones. This is done by using the notion of generalized BSDEs with two reflecting barriers studied in cite{EH}. The work is suggested by the interest the results might have in finance, control and game theory.
We study the problem of existence of solutions for generalized backward stochastic differential equation with two reflecting barriers (GRBSDE for short) under weaker assumptions on the data. Roughly speaking we show the existence of a maximal solution for GRBSDE when the terminal condition xi is F_T-measurable, the coefficient f is continuous with general growth with respect to the variable y and stochastic quadratic growth with respect to the variable z and the reflecting barriers L and U are just right continuous left limited. The result is proved without assuming any P-integrability conditions.
We study the existence of a solution for a one-dimensional generalized backward stochastic differential equation with two reflecting barriers (GRBSDE for short) under assumptions on the input data which are weaker than that on the current literature. In particular, we construct a maximal solution for such a GRBSDE when the terminal condition xi is only F_T-measurable and the driver f is continuous with general growth with respect to the variable y and stochastic quadratic growth with respect to the variable z without assuming any P-integrability conditions. The work is suggested by the interest the results might have in Dynkin game problem and American game option.
This paper introduces a new class of optimal switching problems, where the player is allowed to switch at a sequence of exogenous Poisson arrival times, and the underlying switching system is governed by an infinite horizon backward stochastic differential equation system. The value function and the optimal switching strategy are characterized by the solution of the underlying switching system. In a Markovian setting, the paper gives a complete description of the structure of switching regions by means of the comparison principle.
