Abstract

We study a parabolic obstacle partial integro-differential equation (PIDE) with a dynamically moving bilateral free boundary. This type of problem arises in the mathematical modeling of speculative asset bubbles with L\'evy jump processes. We consider the existence of viscosity supersolutions within the class of functions exhibiting linear asymptotic growth ($O(|g|)$ at infinity) across three distinct parametric regimes. Our intention is to determine when such a supersolution barrier can be built by analyzing the balance between the stabilizing local drift, defined by the discount rate $r$ and mean-reversion $\rho$, and the non-local jump dispersion, characterized by the large-jump intensity $\lambda$ and Lipschitz constant $L_\gamma$. First, when $r+\rho > \sqrt{\lambda}L_\gamma$, we prove the global existence of non-negative viscosity supersolutions. Second, in the deficit regime ($r+\rho
