Hi,

Here is a theorem that might answer your question (it is coming from Chesnay, Jeanblanc-Piqué and Yor's book "Mathematical Methods for Financial Markets").

It is theorem (11.2.8.1 page 621) here it is :

Let $X$ be an $R^d$ valued Lévy Process and $F^X$ its natural filtration. Let $M$ be an $F^X$-local Martingale. Then there exist an $R^d$-valued predictable process $\phi$ and an predictable function $\psi : R^+ \times \Omega \times R^d\to R$ such that :

-$\int_0^t (\phi^i)^2(s)ds <\infty$ almost surely

-$\int_0^t \int_{|x|\le 1} |\psi(s,x)|ds\nu(dx) <\infty$ almost surely

-$\int_0^t \int_{|x|> 1} (\psi)^2(s,x)ds\nu(dx) <\infty$ almost surely

and

$M_t=M_0+ \sum_{i=0}^d \int_0^t \phi^i(s)dW^i_s + \int_0^t \int_{R^d} \psi(s,x)\tilde{N}(ds,dx)$

Where $\tilde{N}(ds,dx)$ is the compensated measure of the Lévy process.

Moreover if $(M_t)$ is square integrable martingale then we have :

$E[(\int_0^t \phi^i(s)dW^i_s)^2]=E[\int_0^t \phi^i(s)^2dW^i_s]<\infty$

and

$E[(\int_0^t \int_{R^d} \psi(s,x)\tilde{N}(ds,dx))^2]=E[ \int_0^t ds \int_{R^d} \psi(s,x)^2\nu(dx)]<\infty$

and $\phi$ and $\psi$ are essentially unique.

The theorem is not proved in the book but there is a reference to the following parpers :
