Concrete Representation of Martingales

Stephen Montgomery-Smith, University of Missouri


Abstract
Let (fn) be a mean zero vector valued martingale sequence.  Then there exist vector valued functions (dn) from [0,1]n such that int01 dn(x1,...,xn) dxn = 0 for almost all x1,...,xn-1, and such that the law of (fn) is the same as the law of ( sumk=1n dk(x1,...,xk) ) .  Similar results for tangent sequences and sequences satisfying condition (C.I.) are presented.  We also present a weaker version of a result of McConnell that provides a Skorohod like representation for vector valued martingales.
