In this paper Clark-Ocone representation for solution to measure-valued equation with interaction is studied. It is proven that the integrand is absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure.
In present article we prove the existence of multiple self-intersection local times, describe its Ito-Wiener expansion and establish Clark representation for the class of Gaussian integrators generated by operators with a finite dimensional kernel.
In the article we present chaotic decomposition and analog of the Clark formula for the local time of Gaussian integrators. Since the integral with respect to Gaussian integrator is understood in Skorokhod sense, then there exist more than one Clark representation for the local time. We present different representations and discuss the representation with the minimal L_2-norm.
In this paper we explore the fundamentals of the Martingale Representation Theorem (MRT) and a closely related result, the Clark-Ocone formula. We also investigate how far these theorems can be taken, notably beyond the regular Sobolev spaces, through changes of measures and enlargement of filtrations. We look at Brownian motion (B.M.) driven continuous martingales as well as Jump and Levy process-driven martingales.
The article contains description of the functionals from the family of coalescing Brownian particles. New type of the stochastic integral is introduced and used.
In this paper, we construct a Malliavin derivative for functionals of square-integrable Lévy processes and derive a Clark-Ocone formula. The Malliavin derivative is defined via chaos expansions involving stochastic integrals with respect to Brownian motion and Poisson random measure. As an illustration, we compute the explicit martingale representation for the maximum of a Lévy process.
In this paper, we will establish a discrete-time version of Clark(-Ocone-Haussmann) formula, which can be seen as an asymptotic expansion in a weak sense. The formula is applied to the estimation of the error caused by the martingale representation. In the way, we use another distribution theory with respect to Gaussian rather than Lebesgue measure, which can be seen as a discrete Malliavin calculus.
We generalise the Clark-Ocone formula for functions to give analogous representations for differential forms on the classical Wiener space. Such formulae provide explicit expressions for closed and co-closed differential forms and, as a by-product, a new proof of the triviality of the L^2 de Rham cohomology groups on the Wiener space, alternative to Shigekawa's approach [16] and the chaos-theoretic version [18]. This new approach has the potential of carrying over to curved path spaces, as indicated by the vanishing result for harmonic one-forms in [6]. For the flat path group, the generalised…
In this article, we investigate the convergence rate of the discrete-time Clark--Ocone formula provided by Akahori--Amaba--Okuma [1]. In that paper, they mainly focus on the $L_{2}$-convergence rate of the first-order error estimate related to the tracking error of the delta hedge in mathematical finance. Here, as two extensions, we estimate "the higher order error" for Wiener functionals with an integrability index $2$ and "an arbitrary differentiability index."
In this paper we first prove a Clark--Ocone formula for any bounded measurable functional on Poisson space. Then using this formula, under some conditions on the intensity measure of Poisson random measure, we prove a variational representation formula for the Laplace transform of bounded Poisson functionals, which has been conjectured by Dupuis and Ellis [A Weak Convergence Approach to the Theory of Large Deviations (1997) Wiley], p. 122.
This work considers a stochastic model in which the uncertainty is driven by a multidimensional Brownian motion. The market price of risk process makes the transition between real world probability measure and risk neutral probability measure. Traditionally, the martingale representation formulas under the risk neutral probability measure requires the market price of risk process to be bounded. However, in several financial models the boundedness assumption of the market price of risk fails. One example is a stock price model with the market price of risk following an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck proces…
We provide a suitable framework for the concept of finite quadratic variation for processes with values in a separable Banach space $B$ using the language of stochastic calculus via regularizations, introduced in the case $B= \R$ by the second author and P. Vallois. To a real continuous process $X$ we associate the Banach valued process $X(\cdot)$, called {\it window} process, which describes the evolution of $X$ taking into account a memory $τ>0$. The natural state space for $X(\cdot)$ is the Banach space of continuous functions on $[-τ,0]$. If $X$ is a real finite quadratic variation process…
Hedging strategies in bond markets are computed by martingale representation and the Clark-Ocone formula under the choice of a suitable of numeraire, in a model driven by the dynamics of bond prices. Applications are given to the hedging of swaptions and other interest rate derivatives, and our approach is compared to delta hedging when the underlying swap rate is modeled by a diffusion process.
The classical representation of random variables as the Ito integral of nonanticipative integrands is extended to include Banach space valued random variables on an abstract Wiener space equipped with a filtration induced by a resolution of the identity on the Cameron-Martin space. The Ito integral is replaced in this case by an extension of the divergence to random operators, and the operators involved in the representation are adapted with respect to this filtration in a suitably defined sense. However, the published paper contains a mistake which restricts the validity of the main result, a…
The Clark-Ocone formula in the theory of discrete-time chaotic calculus holds only for square integrable functionals of discrete-time normal noises. In this paper, we aim at extending this formula to generalized functionals of discrete-time normal noises. Let $Z$ be a discrete-time normal noise that has the chaotic representation property. We first prove a result concerning the regularity of generalized functionals of $Z$. Then, we use the Fock transform to define some fundamental operators on generalized functionals of $Z$, and apply the above mentioned regularity result to prove the continui…
An explicit martingale representation for random variables described as a functional of a Levy process will be given. The Clark-Ocone theorem shows that integrands appeared in a martingale representation are given by conditional expectations of Malliavin derivatives. Our goal is to extend it to random variables which are not Malliavin differentiable. To this end, we make use of Ito's formula, instead of Malliavin calculus. As an application to mathematical finance, we shall give an explicit representation of locally risk-minimizing strategy of digital options for exponential Levy models. Since…
Let H be a separable real Hilbert space and let F = (F_t)_{t\in [0,T]} be the augmented filtration generated by an H-cylindrical Brownian motion W_H on [0,T]. We prove that if E is a UMD Banach space, 1\leq p<\infty, and f\in D^{1,p}(E) is F_T-measurable, then f = \E f + \int_0^T P_F(Df) dW_H where D is the Malliavin derivative and P_F is the projection onto the F-adapted elements in a suitable Banach space of L^p-stochastically integrable L(H,E)-valued processes.
In a 2006 article (\cite{A1}), Allouba gave his quadratic covariation differentiation theory for Itô's integral calculus. He defined the derivative of a semimartingale with respect to a Brownian motion as the time derivative of their quadratic covariation and a generalization thereof. He then obtained a systematic differentiation theory containing a fundamental theorem of stochastic calculus relating this derivative to Itô's integral, a differential stochastic chain rule, a differential stochastic mean value theorem, and other differentiation rules. Here, we use this differentiation theory to …
In this paper we apply Clark-Ocone formula to deduce an explicit integral representation for the renormalized self-intersection local time of the $d$% -dimensional fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H\in (0,1)$. As a consequence, we derive the existence of some exponential moments for this random variable.
We consider a Poisson process $η$ on a measurable space $(\BY,\mathcal{Y})$ equipped with a partial ordering, assumed to be strict almost everwhwere with respect to the intensity measure $λ$ of $η$. We give a Clark-Ocone type formula providing an explicit representation of square integrable martingales (defined with respect to the natural filtration associated with $η$), which was previously known only in the special case, when $λ$ is the product of Lebesgue measure on $\R_+$ and a $σ$-finite measure on another space $\BX$. Our proof is new and based on only a few basic properties of Poisson p…
In this paper we show the existence and form uniqueness of a solution for multidimensional backward stochastic differential equations driven by a multidimensional Lévy process with moments of all orders. The results are important from a pure mathematical point of view as well as in the world of finance: an application to Clark-Ocone and Feynman-Kac formulas for multidimensional Lévy processes is presented. Moreover, the Feynman-Kac formula and the related partial differential integral equations provide an analogue of the famous Black-Scholes partial differential equation and thus can be used f…
The solution $\vartheta =(\vartheta_{t})_{t\geq 0}$ of a class of linear stochastic partial differential equations is approximated using Clark's robust representation approach (\cite{c}, \cite{cc}). The ensuing approximations are shown to coincide with the time marginals of solutions of a certain McKean-Vlasov type equation. We prove existence and uniqueness of the solution of the McKean-Vlasov equation. The result leads to a representation of $\vartheta $as a limit of empirical distributions of systems of equally weighted particles. In particular, the solution of the Zakai equation and that o…
Recently, functional Itō calculus has been introduced and developed in finite dimension for functionals of continuous semimartingales. With different techniques, we develop a functional Itō calculus for functionals of Hilbert spacevalued diffusions. In this context, we first prove a path-dependent Itō's formula, then we show applications to classical solutions of path-dependent Kolmogorov equations in Hilbert spaces and derive a Clark-Ocone type formula. Finally, we explicitly verify that all the theory developed can be applied to a class of diffusions driven by SDEs with a path-dependent drif…
We develop a nonanticipative calculus for functionals of a continuous semimartingale, using an extension of the Ito formula to path-dependent functionals which possess certain directional derivatives. The construction is based on a pathwise derivative, introduced by Dupire, for functionals on the space of right-continuous functions with left limits. We show that this functional derivative admits a suitable extension to the space of square-integrable martingales. This extension defines a weak derivative which is shown to be the inverse of the Ito integral and which may be viewed as a nonanticip…
This paper discusses a new notion of quadratic variation and covariation for Banach space valued processes (not necessarily semimartingales) and related Itô formula. If $\X$ and $\Y$ take respectively values in Banach spaces $B_{1}$ and $B_{2}$ and $χ$ is a suitable subspace of the dual of the projective tensor product of $B_{1}$ and $B_{2}$ (denoted by $(B_{1}\hat{\otimes}_πB_{2})^{\ast}$), we define the so-called $χ$-covariation of $\X$ and $\Y$. If $\X=\Y$, the $χ$-covariation is called $χ$-quadratic variation. The notion of $χ$-quadratic variation is a natural generalization of the one int…
We prove a stochastic formula for the Gaussian relative entropy in the spirit of Borell's formula for the Laplace transform. As an application, we give unified and short proofs of a number of functional inequalities.
We prove the existence and a new representation formula for the gradient of the semigroup associated to an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck in a bounded convex domain in d dimensions.
