We investigate how such a process might arise from a true martingale as a result of an enlargement of the filtration. We study and implement a particular type of enlargement, initial expansion of filtration, for various stochastic differential equations and provide sufficient conditions in each of these cases such that initial expansion can create a strict local martingale under an equivalent probability measure. Such situations arise in the theory of Mathematical Finance.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2016-08-23T02:17:08.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "strict local martingale", "filtration enlargement", "initial expansion", "equivalent probability measure", "stochastic differential equations" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
