Explicit martingale representation for a Brownian bridge
Let $W$ denote a Wiener process, $\displaystyle M_t = \max_{0 \le s \le t} W_s$ its running maximum. The martingale representation of $M$ is known explicitly:
$$M_T = \sqrt{\frac{2T} \pi} + \int_0^T ...

Change of Time in Stochastic Integral
Hi everyone,
Let's be given $I(0,t)$ a Stochastic Integral with respect to a local martingale $ M_t$ of the form :
$I(0,t)=\int_0^t h(s_-)dM_s$ with $h\in L(M)$ (for example $h$ is an adapted ...

Semimartingale decomposition and filtrations
In short: I am trying to understand how the decomposition of a semimartingale into its local martingale and finite variation components depends on the filtration we are using.
So, taking a toy example,...

Non-negative martingale transforms and Radon Nikodym derivatives
Consider a filtered probability space $(\Omega, (\mathcal F_n), \mathcal F, \mathbb P)$, where $\Omega$ is the set of sequences with value in some $E \subseteq \mathbb R^d$, and $\mathcal F$ is the ...

Martingales associated with heat equation
I am trying to learn the connection between Brownian motion and heat equation (in the spirit of Feynman-Kac, for example, here). I read (Michael E. Taylor's PDE book, Volume II, Chapter 11, ...

What conditions on a filtration guarantee that a (sub)martingale has a continuous modification?
There is a theorem as follows:
Theorem. Let $\mathcal{F}_t$ be a filtration which is right-continuous and complete. Assume $M_t$ is a submartingale adapted to $\mathcal{F}_t$ such that $t \mapsto \...

Looking for a citation for this simple generalization of the Markov bound to non-negative super-martingales
Does anybody know a reference for the following theorem?
Theorem 1. Let $(X_t)_{t=0}^\infty$ be a non-negative supermartingale.
Then, for any constant $c > 0$, the event $(\exists
> t)\, X_t \...
