Abstract

The important application of semi-static hedging in financial markets naturally leads to the notion of quasi self-dual processes which is, for continuous semimartingales, related to symmetry properties of both their ordinary as well as their stochastic logarithms. We provide a structure result for continuous quasi self-dual processes. Moreover, we give a characterisation of continuous Ocone martingales via a strong version of self-duality.
