In this paper, inspired by various stochastic linear-quadratic (LQ, for short) problems, we develop the method of continuation to study nonlinear forward–backward stochastic differential equations (FBSDEs, for short) in a kind of domination-monotonicity frameworks. The coupling of FBSDEs is in a general form, i.e., it not only appears in integral terms and terminal terms, but also in initial terms. By virtue of introducing various matrices, matrix-valued random variables and matrix-valued stochastic processes, we present the domination-monotonicity framework carefully and rigorously. A unique solvability result and a pair of estimates for coupled FBSDEs are obtained (see Theorem 3.5 in the case of simple domination-monotonicity conditions and Theorem 5.2 in the case of multi-level self-similar domination-monotonicity structures). As applications of theoretical results, the related stochastic Hamiltonian systems of several LQ problems are discussed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
