Levy martingale characterization
Theorem (Levy’s martingale characterisation).
Let , be a stochastic process and let be the filtration
generated by it. Then is a Wiener process
if and only if the following conditions hold:
- 1.
almost surely;
- 2.
The sample paths are continuous almost surely;
- 3.
is a martingale
with respect to the filtration ;
- 4.
is a martingale with respect to .
