Decomposition of two parameter martingales.

David Nualart Rodón (1981)

Stochastica

In this paper we exhibit some decompositions in orthogonal stochastic integrals of two-parameter square integrable martingales adapted to a Brownian sheet which generalize the representation theorem of E. Wong and M. Zakai ([6]). Concretely, a development in a series of multiple stochastic integrals is obtained for such martingales. These results are applied for the characterization of martingales of path independent variation.

Defaultable bonds with an infinite number of Lévy factors

Jacek Jakubowski, Mariusz Niewęgłowski (2010)

Applicationes Mathematicae

A market with defaultable bonds where the bond dynamics is in a Heath-Jarrow-Morton setting and the forward rates are driven by an infinite number of Lévy factors is considered. The setting includes rating migrations driven by a Markov chain. All basic types of recovery are investigated. We formulate necessary and sufficient conditions (generalized HJM conditions) under which the market is arbitrage-free. Connections with consistency conditions are discussed.
