Proof. (Proposition 27) In view of Subsection 5.1, the generator of the BSDE can be written as
Proof. (Theorem 28) We approximate the generator f by the functions
From this equation, we get by taking conditional expectations w.r.t. Ft and using Young’s inequality that for all q ∈ (0,∞
Further, (21) implies, together with Doob’s martingale inequality, Burkholder-Davis-Gundy’s, Young’s inequality and the fact that
that there is a constant c, such that for all R ∈ (0,∞),
where we used Young’s inequality again for the second estimate. Replacing the last term with the help of inequality (22), we arrive at
Now, by dominated convergence we get that for t ∈ [0, T],
Gronwall’s inequality now shows that for r ∈ [t, T]:
The terms can be further estimated by
