Abstract
In this study, we explore backward stochastic differential equations driven by a Poisson process and an independent Brownian motion, denoted for short as BSDEJs. The generator exhibits logarithmic growth in both the state variable and the Brownian component while maintaining Lipschitz continuity with respect to the jump component. Our study rigorously establishes the existence and uniqueness of solutions within suitable functional spaces. Additionally, we relax the Lipschitz condition on the Poisson component, permitting the generator to exhibit logarithmic growth with respect to all variables. Taking a step further, we employ an exponential transformation to establish an equivalence between a solution of a BSDEJ exhibiting quadratic growth in the z-variable and a BSDEJ showing a logarithmic growth with respect to y and z.

1. Introduction and Notations
Pardoux and Peng [1] initially introduced the concept of backward stochastic differential equations without the jump component, denoted briefly as BSDEs. They established the existence and uniqueness of BSDEs, assuming the Lipschitz continuity condition on the BSDE’s generator with respect to both . Additionally, they assumed that the terminal value is square integrable. This result gained widespread recognition across various fields, including mathematical finance [2], finance and insurance [3], insurance reserve [4], and optimal control theory [5], as well as stochastic differential games and stochastic control [6,7,8]. These findings are strongly connected to partial differential equations (PDEs) [9,10,11]. In contrast, the latter contributions were the first to demonstrate BSDEs with random terminal time.
Given the diverse applications of BSDEs, researchers have actively worked to relax assumptions on the generator f and/or the final condition. Notably, scholars have established limited results for high-dimensional BSDEs with local Lipschitz assumptions on the driver, as demonstrated in [12,13,14,15,16]. While real-valued BSDEs have undergone extensive study, researchers have predominantly relied on a comparison theorem, focusing on cases where the generator grows at most linearly with respect to y and grows either linearly or quadratically in z. This has enabled the establishment of solutions under conditions of square integrability (or even integrability) for the terminal datum, as illustrated in [17,18,19].
In situations where the generator exhibits a quadratic growth in z (referred to as QBSDE), the existence of solutions hinges upon either boundedness or, minimally, exponential integrability of the terminal value. Various works, such as [20,21,22], demonstrate this requirement. Recent advancements, highlighted in [23,24,25], have identified a substantial class of QBSDEs for which solutions exist solely under the condition of a square-integrable terminal datum.
Let be a filtered probability space, where represents the -algebra generated by two fundamental processes: a real-valued Wiener process and a real-valued Poisson random measure defined on , with . Furthermore, we introduce as the compensated Poisson random measure, defined by , where is a -finite measure on , equipped with its Borel field . It is noteworthy that serves as a martingale with a zero mean, referred to as the compensated Poisson random measure.
We now direct our attention to the central focus of this research endeavour. Specifically, we investigate solutions denoted as for a BSDEJ. The following dynamics govern the evolution of these solutions:
The investigation initiated by Tang and Li [26] marked a pioneering achievement in the study of BSDEJ of type (1). This work demonstrated the existence and uniqueness of solutions for such equations subject to Lipschitz conditions. In a closely related context, [27] studied a class of real-valued BSDEs featuring Poisson jumps and random time horizons. They proved the existence of at least one solution for BSDEs characterized by a driver exhibiting linear growth.
In subsequent work, ref. [28] extended these discoveries by proving the existence but not the uniqueness of solutions for BSDEs with jumps. They considered continuous coefficients that satisfy an extended linear growth condition in this extension. This result was generalized to situations where the generators are either left- or right-continuous.
Recent advancements in research by [29,30] strengthen the connections between specific classes of quadratic BSDEs and conventional BSDEs driven by continuous functions. Notably, ref. [31] made an important contribution by proving the well-posedness of solutions under local Lipschitz conditions, with special emphasis on the Brownian motion component. They also demonstrated the existence of one and only one solution for a class of nonlinear variants of the backward Kolmogorov equation.
Previous studies formulated all of the above results for one-dimensional BSDEs. Ref. [32] studied a multidimensional Markovian BSDEJ and demonstrated that a given Poisson process and deterministic functions can express the adapted solution. They established the existence of solutions for these equations under the assumption that their generators are either continuous with respect to y and z and Lipschitz in u or continuous in all their variables and adhere to standard linear growth assumptions. Bahlali and El Asri [33] investigated situations where the generator of the BSDEs is bounded by . They also considered the terminal value, assuming it to be merely -integrable, with . However, the extension of this condition was recently explored by [34], who supposed that the drift is dominated by . Additionally, refs. [31,35] studied BSDEs associated with jump Markov processes, with the latter work presenting a proof under assumptions different from those considered in the present study.
Logarithmic growth generators in BSDEs play a crucial role in financial risk management, capturing the common assumption of asset growth proportional to their current value. Studying BSDEs with such generators is essential for optimizing investment portfolios, pricing, hedging derivatives, modeling energy prices, and guiding optimal investment strategies in wealth accumulation problems (see [33,36]). Moreover, their connection to partial differential equations (PDEs) with logarithmic coefficients (as explored in [34]) highlights their relevance in physics. Notably, the logarithmic growth condition’s weaker nature compared to quadratic and super-linear ones further emphasizes its versatility. Consequently, understanding and solving one-dimensional BSDEs with logarithmic growth generators are fundamental for tackling complex problems across finance, engineering, physics, and even biology.
In this work, we proceed according to the following methodology. We establish the existence and uniqueness of the solution for BSDEJs whose generators show a growth described by a logarithmic function of the type but keeping the linear growth condition in u. Initially, we present a priori estimates for solutions of BSDEs, followed by the presentation of the main result; this comprises the content of Section 2. Section 3 extends the logarithmic growth condition for BSDEJs, specifically by relaxing the Lipschitz condition on the jump coefficient. In Section 4, we demonstrate the equivalence of previously obtained solutions through an exponential transformation. Finally, Section 5 provides the conclusion of our work. Some detailed proofs of crucial lemmas are gathered in Appendix A.
Below, we list some notations that will be used in this paper.

2. Existence and Uniqueness of Solutions
In this section, we establish the foundational assumption that forms the basis of our analysis, providing a framework for subsequent developments. This assumption is pivotal for exploring solutions to the BSDEJ Equation (1). We then introduce preliminary estimates of the solution and delineate key lemmas crucial for establishing both the existence and uniqueness of solutions.

The first lemma that follows allows for a localization procedure introduced to establish solutions’ existence and uniqueness. The second one provides a prior estimate for the approximating solutions and guarantees that these solutions do not diverge. The proofs for these lemmas can be performed and adapted to our setting similarly as outlined in [34].

2.3. Some Convergence Results
This subsection establishes estimates between two potential solutions. This analysis is essential for demonstrating the existence of solutions and understanding the properties of these solutions in the context of the study on one-dimensional BSDEs with logarithmic growth. Moving forward, we use the notation to represent the difference between and for any given quantities.
Proposition 1.

Here, , , and ℓ is a positive constant. The definition of κ can be found below.
We rely on Lemma A1 to substantiate the preceding proposition.
Proof.
We define the constant C in Lemma A1 as , where and . Additionally, let . We will examine the following quantity:
The control of the expression involving the process has been postponed to Lemma A2, where Young’s inequality plays a crucial role, leading us to the following:
We direct our attention to the expression encompassing the norm .
By applying Young’s inequality and setting for sufficiently large (i.e., ), we obtain the following result:
Based on Lemma 3 and employing Burkholder–Davis–Gundy’s inequality and Hölder’s inequality, while taking into account the relationship as well as the inequalities (A7) and (3), we obtain a positive universal constant ℓ such that, for all , the following inequality universally holds:
Utilizing Lemmas 6 and 7, for any :
Given , we can derive
To complete the proof of Proposition 1, we commence by taking the limits as n, m approach their respective limits , followed by a subsequent limit as N tends to infinity, in accordance with assertion of Lemma 6. □
2.4. The Main Result
The primary focus of this work is to investigate the existence and the uniqueness results of solutions for BSDEJ (1) under Assumption 1.
Theorem 1.
Under Assumption 1, Equation (1) admits one and only one solution in .
Proof of existence.
By applying Proposition 1 successively with , , and utilizing the Lebesgue dominated convergence theorem, we can show that for any , the following holds:
Through the application of the Cauchy–Schwarz inequality, we derive
It is evident from Lemma 7 that
Consequently,
Thus, there exists that satisfies
and
Specifically, a sub-sequence denoted as exists, such that
We still need to establish the convergence in probability of the following term:
as n approaches ∞. The initial step is applying the triangular inequality, which yields
Utilizing Hölder’s inequality and the following inequality,
we obtain
The last inequality is obtained from Lemmas 6 and 7. Taking the limit successively first with respect to n and then to N in the preceding inequality, we arrive at
Considering the limit (4) and the continuity of the function f with respect to for all , we obtain
Furthermore, Lemma 4 and the conditions (a–c) outlined in Lemma 7 affirm the uniform integrability of the sequence
As a result:
Consequently, the BSDE (1) has a solution in . Taking account of Lemma 5, we conclude that it belongs to . This achieves the proof of the existence part. □
Proof of uniqueness.
Example 1.
Let . Clearly, g satisfies (A.2), so we will now verify that (A.3) holds true:
Indeed, letting , we have
We shall examine the function under the following conditions:
Additionally, we will analyze across various cases:

Clearly, in the first case (), the two functions satisfy (A.3),
The mean value theorem, applied in the second term, implies the following:
Applying the mean value theorem again, we can prove the remaining cases for the function . Therefore, (A.3) holds for .
Further examples can be found in [37].
3. Generalized Logarithmic Growth Condition for BSDEs with Jumps
Now, we examine a distinct BSDE with jumps from the one in (1), introducing different assumptions for the generator of the next BSDEJ:
Assumption 2.
- (A.1)′
- Assume that is finite, where for all and θ is a sufficiently large positive constant.
- (A.2)′ (i)
- For almost all , the function f is continuous with respect to .
- (ii)
- There exists a positive process ϑ such thatAdditionally, for every t, y, z, and u,where , , and are positive constants.
- (A.3)′
- There exists a real-valued sequence and constants , such that
- (i)
- For every integer , we have
- (ii)
- (iii)
- For every , we have
By following the steps outlined in the previous proofs, we can obtain a unique solution for BSDEJ (5) in which the transaction with u becomes proportionally identical to the transaction with z.
The previous lemmas maintain their validity while adhering to (5) and Assumption 2. Therefore, we will provide concise proofs, building upon the earlier derivations.
The proof of Lemma 5 under Assumption 2 is provided in Appendix A.
In what follows, we state a lemma concerning the stability result for the solution of BSDEJ (5). The proof follows the same steps as Lemma 3.5 in [34].
Lemma 8.
There exists a sequence of functions with the following properties:
- (i)
- For each n, is bounded and globally Lipschitz in a.e. t and -a.s.ω.
- (ii)
- Moreover, for all n, we have -a.s., a.e. :
- (iii)
- Additionally, for every N, as n tends to infinity, the quantity converges to 0, where
Proposition 2.
Proposition 1, which establishes the estimate between two solutions, maintains its validity within this section despite variations in the values of δ and C, as presented in the subsequent lemma.
Lemma 9.
Assuming that and , for any we have
where
and
Proof of Proposition 2.
The proof closely aligns with the methodology employed in establishing Lemma A1. Let and .
As presented in Lemma 9, it is obvious that
and
Using Young’s inequality, it follows that
therefore,
Based on the preceding lemmas, for any we have
Since , we proceed by taking limits for n and m, followed by a limit as N approaches infinity, in accordance with the statement (iii) of Lemma 8, and we obtain the desired result. □
Theorem 2.
Under Assumption 2 Equation (5) has a unique solution in
.
To prove the above theorem, we utilize Proposition 2 and follow similar steps in the proof of the existence and uniqueness parts of Theorem 1.
4. The Relationship between BSDEJs and QBSDEJs
We present a supplementary BSDEJ, explicitly formulated through the exponential transformation of the initial problem. This formulation facilitates the establishment of a connection between the solution of the auxiliary BSDEJ and that of the original BSDEJ . Subsequently, we will demonstrate an application to quadratic BSDEJs.
Lemma 10
(General exponential transformation). We assume that either or satisfies the first Assumption 1. Let a measurable function and , two operators, defined as
where Ψ is defined for every as
The triplet is a solution to the BSDEJ if and only if the triplet is a solution to the BSDEJ , where
and
Clearly, is bi-Lipschitz with , guaranteeing the preservation of the same spaces for primary BSDEJs and their auxiliary counterparts, i.e., and in . The proof proceeds through a series of steps analogous to those outlined in Lemma 11.
Example 2.
Consider ζ satisfying condition (A.1), and let be a continuous function with respect to . The function is defined as follows:
where Ψ is defined as in the previous Lemma 10. Using its result, it becomes evident that the BSDEJ is equivalent to the BSDEJ , whose generator satisfies Assumption 1, and ensures the existence and uniqueness of the solution for both BSDEJ. Furthermore, , in .
Proposition 3.
Assuming that Assumption 1 holds and further supposing that ζ and are bounded, then there exists such that
- .
Proof.
By utilizing Itô’s formula and employing the same step as in the proof of Lemma 5, we obtain
where
We obtain the first result by taking the conditional expectation. Building upon the first result and condition in Lemma 5, we attain the desired outcome. □
Let and . Consider the following BSDEJ:
where
Assumption 3.
- (A.4) (i)
- The function g is continuous in and Lipschitz with respect to u for almost all .
- (ii)
- There exist constants , , , and , as well as a bounded positive process , such that for every :and
- (A.5)
- There exists a real-valued sequence and constants , such that
- (i)
- ,
- (ii)
- (iii)
- For every, we have
In the following lemma, we utilize the exponential transformation while relaxing the Lipschitz condition through the utilization of .
Lemma 11.
If ζ and are bounded and Assumption 3 holds, then, for any , the following equivalence holds: there exists a unique solution
to the BSDEJ (6) if and only if the triplet
is the unique solution to the BSDEJ, where
and
Proof.
By employing Itô’s formula on , we derive the following result for all , -a.s.
With the quantities provided above, we can deduce the following:
Since the generator g satisfies Assumption 3, then the generator fulfills Assumption 1; therefore, Theorem 1 shows that Equation (7) has a unique solution in . Thus, taking account of Proposition 3, the necessary condition is proved.
Conversely, Itô’s formula applied to along with Proposition 3 lead to the sufficient condition.
It is worth mentioning that the functional spaces are conserved due to Proposition 3. □
Example 3.
Assume ζ is bounded, and let
where , and are positive constants. Therefore,
Clearly, the generator satisfies Assumption 1. Consequently, according to the preceding Lemma 11, the BSDEJ has a unique solution and the BSDEJ has a unique solution.
Remark 1
(Quadratic–exponential BSDEJs). Let , where g is defined as in the previous example. Then, the BSDEJ (6) transforms into a quadratic–exponential BSDEJ, which has a unique solution.
For a more extensive examination of quadratic BSDEJs, we refer to [30].
Remark 2.
The primary BSDEJs discussed in the previous section share the same auxiliary counterpart, consistent with the discussions in this section regarding the suitable space for the jump. In other words, the previously established lemmas hold for the generators and .
5. Conclusions
Our study addresses fundamental questions concerning the existence and uniqueness of BSDEs whose driving processes are a compensated Poisson random measure and an independent Wiener process. Through rigorous proofs under two sets of assumptions, we first emphasize the significance of a generator by the logarithmic growth in both -variables and the Lipschitz continuity with respect to the third variable u. We also included a concrete example that strengthens the validity of our first assumption.
Under Assumption 2, we take a step further by relaxing the Lipschitz condition on u. Here, the generator exhibits logarithmic growth in all variables, adding nuance to our understanding of the problem. Moreover, the introduction of the exponential transformation proves to be a key tool that demonstrates the equivalence between the solutions of the auxiliary BSDEJ and our primary BSDEJ.
