A counterexample concerning the variance-optimal martingale measure
The present note addresses an open question concerning a sufficient characterization of the variance-optimal martingale measure. Denote by S the discounted price process of an asset and suppose that Q? is an equivalent martingale measure whose density is a multiple of 1− φ • ST for some S-integrable process φ. We show that Q? does not necessarily coincide with the variance-optimal martingale me...
متن کاملThe Variance{optimal Martingale Measure for Continuous Processes
We prove that for continuous stochastic processes S based on ( ;F;P) for which there is an equivalent martingale measureQ with square-integrable density dQ=dPwe have that the so-called "variance optimal" martingale measure Q for which the density dQ=dPhas minimal L(P)-norm is automatically equivalent to P. The result is then applied to an approximation problem arising in Mathematical Finance.
متن کاملA counterexample concerning the L2-projector onto linear spline spaces
For the L2-orthogonal projection PV onto spaces of linear splines over simplicial partitions in polyhedral domains in Rd, d > 1, we show that in contrast to the one-dimensional case, where ‖PV ‖L∞→L∞ ≤ 3 independently of the nature of the partition, in higher dimensions the L∞-norm of PV cannot be bounded uniformly with respect to the partition. This fact is folklore among specialists in finite...
متن کاملA Counterexample to a Result concerning Closure Operators
In 1960, José Morgado gave a necessary and sufficient condition on a poset P in order that closure operators on P , ordered pointwise, form a complete lattice. This result was based on a notion of relative quasi-infimum in posets. This note shows that Morgado’s result is flawed.
متن کاملA Discrete Time Equivalent Martingale Measure
An equivalent martingale measure selection strategy for discrete time, continuous state, asset price evolution models is proposed. The minimal martingale law is shown to generally fail to produce a probability law in this context. The proposed strategy, termed the Girsanov principle, performs a multiplicative decomposition of asset price movements into a predictable and martingale component wit...
