Abstract

We present an algorithm for the numerical solution of nonlinear parabolic partial differential equations. This algorithm extends the classical Feynman-Kac formula to fully nonlinear partial differential equations, by using random trees that carry information on nonlinearities on their branches. It applies to functional, non-polynomial nonlinearities that are not treated by standard branching arguments, and deals with derivative terms of arbitrary orders. A Monte Carlo numerical implementation is provided.
