A novel approach is proposed to establish a sharp upper bound on the expected supremum of a separable martingale random field, serving as an alternative to classical universal chaining-based methods. The proposed approach begins by deriving…
Let $\alpha\in (0,2)$ and consider the operator $$L f(x) =\int [f(x+h)-f(x)-1_{(|h|\leq 1)} \nabla f(x)\cdot h] \frac{A(x,h)}{|h|^{d+\alpha}} dh, $$ where the $\nabla f(x)\cdot h$ term is omitted if $\alpha<1$. We consider the martingale…
A proof of the continuous martingale convergence theorem is provided. It relies on a classical martingale inequality and the almost sure convergence of a uniformly bounded non-negative super-martingale, after a truncation argument.
An absolutely convergent double series representation for the density of the supremum of $\alpha$-stable Levy process is given in [3, Theorem 2] for almost all irrational $\alpha$. This result cannot be made stronger in the following sense:…
We prove that, in certain situations, intersection numbers on formal schemes that come in profinite families vary locally constantly in the parameter. To this end, we define the product $S\times M$ of a profinite set $S$ with a locally…
We propose a method to bound the expectation of the supremum of the price process in stochastic volatility models. It can be applied, for example, to the rough Bergomi model, avoiding the need to discuss finiteness of higher moments. Our…
We characterize the random times $\rho$ whose Azema supermartingales $Z^\rho$ take the form $Z^\rho=U/U^*$ for some non negative local martingales $U$ starting from 1 vanishing at infinity, where $U^*$ denotes the running maximum process of…
We describe a new class of self-similar symmetric $\alpha$-stable processes with stationary increments arising as a large time scale limit in a situation where many users are earning random rewards or incurring random costs. The resulting…
We prove a weak-type (1,1) inequality for square functions of non-commutative martingales that are simultaneously bounded in $L^2$ and $L^1$. More precisely, the following non-commutative analogue of a classical result of Burkholder holds:…
Several long-time limit theorems of one-dimensional L\'{e}vy processes weighted and normalized by functions of the local time are studied. The long-time limits are taken via certain families of random times, called clocks: exponential…
In this paper, we provide a pathwise spine decomposition for superprocesses with both local and non-local branching mechanisms under a martingale change of measure. This result complements the related results obtained in Evans (1993),…
We characterize the event of convergence of a local supermartingale. Conditions are given in terms of its predictable characteristics and quadratic variation. The notion of extended local integrability plays a key role. We then apply these…
In the paper we study sharp maximal inequalities for martingales and non-negative submartingales: if $f$, $g$ are martingales satisfying \[|\mathrm{d}g_n|\leq|\mathrm{d}f_n|,\qquad n=0,1,2,...,\] almost surely, then…
We investigate infinitary wellfounded systems for linear logic with fixed points, with transfinite branching rules indexed by some closure ordinal $\alpha$ for fixed points. Our main result is that provability in the system for some…
This paper offers a systematic investigation on the existence of equivalent local martingale deflators, which are multiplicative special semimartingales, in financial markets given by positive semimartingales. In particular, it shows that…
We propose a new weak convergence theorem for martingales, under gentler conditions than the usual convergence in probability of the sequence of associated quadratic variations. Its proof requires the combined use of Skorohod's…
New proofs are given of the existence of the compensator (or dual predictable projection) of a locally integrable c\'adl\'ag adapted process of finite variation and of the existence of the quadratic variation process for a c\'adl\'ag local…
If $X$ is a spectrally positive stable process of index $\alpha\in(1,2)$ whose L\'{e}vy measure has density $cx^{-\alpha-1}$ on $(0,\infty),$ and $S_1=\sup_{0<t\leq1}X_t,$ it is known that $P(S_1>x)\backsim c\alpha^{-1}x^{-\alpha}$ as…
We present sufficient conditions, in terms of the jumping kernels, for two large classes of conservative Markov processes of pure-jump type to be purely discontinuous martingales with finite second moment. As an application, we establish…
A space of local martingales of SLE type growth processes forms a representation of Virasoro algebra, but apart from a few simplest cases not much is known about this representation. The purpose of this article is to exhibit examples of…
