Semi-additive functionals and cocycles in the context of self-similarity

Vladas Pipiras, Murad S. Taqqu (2010)

Discussiones Mathematicae Probability and Statistics

Kernel functions of stable, self-similar mixed moving averages are known to be related to nonsingular flows. We identify and examine here a new functional occuring in this relation and study its properties. To prove its existence, we develop a general result about semi-additive functionals related to cocycles. The functional we identify, is helpful when solving for the kernel function generated by a flow. Its presence also sheds light on the previous results on the subject.

Semimartingale decomposition of convex functions of continuous semimartingales by brownian perturbation

Nastasiya F. Grinberg (2013)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

In this note we prove that the local martingale part of a convex function f of a d-dimensional semimartingale X = M + A can be written in terms of an Itô stochastic integral ∫H(X)dM, where H(x) is some particular measurable choice of subgradient ∇ f ( x ) off at x, and M is the martingale part of X. This result was first proved by Bouleau in [N. Bouleau, C. R. Acad. Sci. Paris Sér. I Math. 292 (1981) 87–90]. Here we present a new treatment of the problem. We first prove the result for X ˜ = X + ϵ B x10ff65;...

Separation principle in the fractional Gaussian linear-quadratic regulator problem with partial observation

Marina L. Kleptsyna, Alain Le Breton, Michel Viot (2008)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

In this paper we solve the basic fractional analogue of the classical linear-quadratic Gaussian regulator problem in continuous-time with partial observation. For a controlled linear system where both the state and observation processes are driven by fractional Brownian motions, we describe explicitly the optimal control policy which minimizes a quadratic performance criterion. Actually, we show that a separation principle holds, i.e., the optimal control separates into two stages based on optimal...

Sequences of independent identically distributed functions in rearrangement invariant spaces

S. V. Astashkin, F. A. Sukochev (2008)

Banach Center Publications

A new set of sufficient conditions under which every sequence of independent identically distributed functions from a rearrangement invariant (r.i.) space on [0,1] spans there a Hilbertian subspace are given. We apply these results to resolve open problems of N. L. Carothers and S. L. Dilworth, and of M. Sh. Braverman, concerning such sequences in concrete r.i. spaces.
