Abstract

In this paper, we assume that the filtration \bbF\bb F is generated by a dd-dimensional Brownian motion W=(W1,,Wd)W=(W_1,\cdots,W_d)' as well as an integer-valued random measure μ(du,dy)\mu(du,dy). The random variable \ttau\ttau is the default time and LL is the default loss. Let G={\scrGt;t0}\mathbb G=\{\scr G_t;t\geq 0\} be the progressive enlargement of \bbF\bb F by (\ttau,L)(\ttau,L), i.e, \bbG\bb G is the smallest filtration including \bbF\bb F such that \ttau\ttau is a \bbG\bb G-stopping time and LL is \scrG\ttau\scr G_\ttau-measurable. We parameterize the conditional density process, which allows us to describe the survival process GG explicitly. We also obtain the explicit \bbG\bb G-decomposition of a \bbF\bb F martingale and the predictable representation theorem for a (P,\bbG)(P,\bb G)-martingale by all known parameters. Formula parametrization in the enlarged filtration is a useful quality in financial modeling.
