Abstract
A probabilistic representation of the solution (in the viscosity sense) of a quasi-linear parabolic PDE system with non-lipschitz terms and a Neumann boundary condition is given via a fully coupled forward-backward stochastic differential equation with a reflecting term in the forward equation. The extension of previous results consists on the relaxation on the Lipschitz assumption on the drift coefficient of the forward equation, using a previous result of the authors.
