Improved error bounds for quantization based numerical schemes for BSDE and nonlinear filtering.

Summary We take advantage of recent (see~\cite{GraLusPag1, PagWil}) and new results on optimal quantization theory to improve the quadratic optimal quantization error bounds for backward stochastic differential equations (BSDE) and nonlinear filtering problems. For both problems, a first improvement relies on a Pythagoras like Theorem for quantized conditional expectation. While allowing for some locally Lipschitz functions conditional densities in nonlinear filtering, the analysis of the error brings into playing a new robustness result about optimal quantizers, the so-called distortion mismatch property: $L^r$-quadratic optimal quantizers of size $N$ behave in $L^s$ in term of mean error at the same rate $N^{-\frac 1d}$, $0
