Abstract

Using probabilistic methods, we establish a priori estimates for two classes of quasilinear parabolic systems of partial differential equations (PDEs). We treat in particular the case of a nonlinearity, which has quadratic growth in the gradient of the unknown. As a result of our estimates, we obtain the existence of classical solutions of the PDE system. From this, we infer the existence of solutions to a corresponding class of forward–backward stochastic differential equations.
