L\'evy processes, martingales, reversed martingales and orthogonal polynomials
Abstract
We study class of L\'{e}vy processes having distributions being indentifiable by moments. We define system of polynomial martingales \newline where is a suitable filtration defined below. We present several properties of these martingales. Among others we show that is a reversed martingale as well as a harness. Main results of the paper concern the question if martingale say multiplied by suitable determinstic function is a reversed martingale. We show that for is a reversed martingale (or orthogonal polynomial) only when the L\'{e}vy process in question is Gaussian (i.e. is a Wiener process). We study also a more general question if there are chances for a linear combination (with coefficients depending on of martingales to be reversed martingales. We analyze case in detail listing all possible cases.
