Source abstract

In this paper, motivated by discrete-time McKean-Vlasov optimal control problem with law-delay, a class of forward-backward stochastic difference equations is investigated. The main difficulties come from the absence of Ito's formula in the discrete-time setting, as well as the fully coupled structure in which the coefficients depend on both law-delayed and law-anticipated terms. Under suitable monotonicity conditions, the existence and uniqueness of solutions are established. Furthermore, a new monotonicity condition is introduced to address the associated optimal control problem. As an application, the unique optimal control for linear quadratic systems with law-delay is derived.
