Abstract
We investigate the questions of the existence and uniqueness of viscos ity solutions to the Cauchy problem for integro-differential PDEs with nonlinear integral term. The existence of a solution is established b y considering semicontinuous subsolutions and supersolutions and apply ing Perron's method. Uniqueness is proved for both bounded and unbound ed solutions. These results are then applied to a problem arising in F inance, namely the stochastic differential utility model under mixed P oisson-Brownian information.
