Abstract
This paper proves that, under the hypothesis g(t, 0, 0)≡0 and some natural assumptions, the generator g of a backward stochastic differential equation can be uniquely determined by the corresponding g-expectations with all terminal conditions. The main result of this paper also confirms and extends Peng Shige’s conjecture.
