Levy preservation and associated properties for $f$-divergence minimal equivalent martingale measures

Probability 2018-03-14 v1

Abstract

We study such important properties of ff-divergence minimal martingale measure as Levy preservation property, scaling property, invariance in time property for exponential Levy models. We give some useful decomposition for ff-divergence minimal martingale measures and we answer on the question which form should have ff to ensure mentioned properties. We show that ff is not necessarily common ff-divergence. For common ff-divergences, i.e. functions verifying f"(x)=axγ,a>0,γRf"(x) = ax^ {\gamma},\, a>0,\, \gamma \in \mathbb R, we give necessary and sufficient conditions for existence of ff-minimal martingale measure.
