Local martingales and filtration shrinkage

Hans Föllmer, Philip Protter (2011)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

A general theory is developed for the projection of martingale related processes onto smaller filtrations, to which they are not even adapted. Martingales, supermartingales, and semimartingales retain their nature, but the case of local martingales is more delicate, as illustrated by an explicit case study for the inverse Bessel process. This has implications for the concept of No Free Lunch with Vanishing Risk, in Finance.

Normal martingales and polynomial families

H. Hammouch (2004)

Annales Polonici Mathematici

Wiener and compensated Poisson processes, as normal martingales, are associated to classical sequences of polynomials, namely Hermite polynomials for the first one and Charlier polynomials for the second. The problem studied in this paper is to find if there exist other normal martingales which are associated to classical sequences of polynomials. Privault, Solé and Vives [5] solved this problem via the quantum Kabanov formula under some assumptions on the normal martingales considered. We solve...
