From Doob's maximal identity to Azema supermartingale

Probability 2016-03-01 v2

Abstract

We characterize the random times ρ\rho whose Azema supermartingales ZρZ^\rho take the form Zρ=U/UZ^\rho=U/U^* for some non negative local martingales UU starting from 1 vanishing at infinity, where UU^* denotes the running maximum process of UU.
