Summary: In this paper, we introduce the notion of an \(\{{\mathcal F}_t,\;0\leq t\leq T\}\)-consistent dynamic operator with a floor in terms of four axioms. We show that an \(\{{\mathcal F}_t,\;0\leq t\leq T\}\)-consistent dynamic operator \(\{{\mathcal E}_{s,t},\;0\leq s\leq t\leq T\}\) with a continuous upper-bounded floor \(\{S_t,\;0\leq t\leq T\}\), is necessarily represented by the solutions of a backward stochastic differential equation reflected upwards on the floor \(\{S_t,\;0\leq t\leq T\}\), if it is \({\mathcal E}^\mu\)-super-dominated for some \(n > 0\) and if it has the non-increasing and floor-above-invariant property of forward translation.
