Application of quantum Monte Carlo integration to Markovian backward stochastic differential equations

抄録

In this paper, we introduce a novel Quantum Least-Squares Monte Carlo (QLSM) algorithm for solving backward stochastic differential equations (BSDEs). The QLSM algorithm leverages quantum computing to enhance the efficiency of traditional least-squares Monte Carlo methods. We present the detailed procedure of the QLSM method and an evaluation of its accuracy and computational cost. This approach has significant potential for applications in mathematical finance, particularly in pricing complex financial derivatives and risk management.
