We present an elementary treatment of the Optional Decomposition Theorem for continuous semimartingales and general filtrations. This treatment does not assume the existence of equivalent local martingale measure(s), only that of strictly…
In this paper, we consider the special class of positive local submartingales (X_{t}) of the form: X_{t}=N_{t}+A_{t}, where the measure (dA_{t}) is carried by the set {t: X_{t}=0}. We show that many examples of stochastic processes studied…

A supermartingale deflator (resp., local martingale deflator) multiplicatively transforms nonnegative wealth processes into supermartingales (resp., local martingales). The supermartingale numeraire (resp., local martingale numeraire) is…
Every submartingale S of class D has a unique Doob-Meyer decomposition S=M+A, where M is a martingale and A is a predictable increasing process starting at 0. We provide a short and elementary prove of the Doob-Meyer decomposition theorem.…
In the paper, we introduce the notion of a local regular supermartingale relative to a convex set of equivalent measures and prove for it an optional Doob decomposition in the discrete case. This Theorem is a generalization of the famous…
In this article, we propose a concise theoretical framework based on mixed field-susceptibilities to describe the decay of magnetic dipoles induced by non--magnetic nanostructures. This approach is first illustrated in simple cases in which…

The integral representation theorem for martingales has been widely used in probability theory. In this work, we propose and prove a general representation theorem for a class of set-valued submartingales. We also extend the stochastic…
Certain countably and finitely additive measures can be associated to a given nonnegative supermartingale. Under weak assumptions on the underlying probability space, existence and (non)uniqueness results for such measures are proven.
We say that a set $S$ is additively decomposed into two sets $A$ and $B$, if $S = \{a+b : a\in A, \ b \in B\}$. Here we study additively decompositions of multiplicative subgroups of finite fields. In particular, we give some improvements…

We construct fast, structure-preserving iterations for computing the sign decomposition of a unitary matrix $A$ with no eigenvalues equal to $\pm i$. This decomposition factorizes $A$ as the product of an involutory matrix $S =…
