Martingale representation for degenerate diffusions

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: Let (W,H,mu) be the classical Wiener space on Rd. Assume that X=(Xt) is a diffusion process satisfying the stochastic differential equation dXt=sigma(t,X)dBt+b(t,X)dt, where sigma:[0,1]imesC([0,1],Rn)oRnotimesRd, b:[0,1]imesC([0,1],Rn)oRn, B is an Rd-valued Brownian motion. We suppose that the weak uniqueness of this equation holds for any initial condition. We prove that any square integrable martingale M w.r.t. to the filtration (calFt(X),tin[0,1]) can be represented as M_t=E[M_0]+int_0^t P_s(X)alpha_s(X).dB_s where alpha(X) is an Rd-valued process adapted to (calFt(X),tin[0,1]), satisfying Eint0t(a(Xs)alphas(X),alphas(X))ds<infty, a=sigmastarsigma and Ps(X) denotes a measurable version of the orthogonal projection from Rd to sigma(Xs)star(Rn). In particular, for any hinH, we have �egin{equation} label{wick} E[ ho(delta h)|calF_1(X)]=expleft(int_0^1(P_s(X)dot{h}_s,dB_s)-halfint_0^1|P_s(X)dot{h}_s|^2ds ight),, end{equation} where ho(deltah)=exp(int01(doths,dBs)−half|H|H2). This result gives a new development as an infinite series of the L2-functionals of the degenerate diffusions. We also give an adequate notion of "innovation process" associated to a degenerate diffusion which corresponds to the strong solution when the Brownian motion is replaced by an adapted perturbation of identity. This latter result gives the solution of the causal Monge-Amp`ere equation.}
