Abstract: Let mathbbQ and mathbbP be equivalent probability measures and let psi be a J-dimensional vector of random variables such that fracdmathbbQdmathbbP and psi are defined in terms of a weak solution X to a d-dimensional stochastic differential equation. Motivated by the problem of emph{endogenous completeness} in financial economics we present conditions which guarantee that every local martingale under mathbbQ is a stochastic integral with respect to the J-dimensional martingale StsetmathbbEmathbbQ[psi|mathcalFt]. While the drift b=b(t,x) and the volatility sigma=sigma(t,x) coefficients for X need to have only minimal regularity properties with respect to x, they are assumed to be analytic functions with respect to t. We provide a counter-example showing that this t-analyticity assumption for sigma cannot be removed.
