Backward stochastic differential equations in a Lie group
We extend some recent work of S. Y. Chang, J. M. Wilson and T. Wolff to the bidisc. For , we determine the sharp order of local integrability obtained when the square function of is in . The Calderón-Torchinsky decomposition reduces the problem to the case of double dyadic martingales. Here we prove a vector-valued form of an inequality for dyadic martingales that yields the sharp dependence on p of in .
Limiting laws, as t→∞, for brownian motion penalised by the longest length of excursions up to t, or up to the last zero before t, or again, up to the first zero after t, are shown to exist, and are characterized.
The paper deals with three issues. First we show a sufficient condition for a cylindrical local martingale to be a stochastic integral with respect to a cylindrical Wiener process. Secondly, we state an infinite dimensional version of the martingale problem of Stroock and Varadhan, and finally we apply the results to show that a weak existence plus uniqueness in law for deterministic initial conditions for an abstract stochastic evolution equation in a Banach space implies the strong Markov property....
