Émery Topology
In martingale theory, Émery topology is a topology on the space of semimartingales. The topology is used in financial mathematics. The class of stochastic integrals with general predictable integrands coincides with the closure of the set of all simple integrals. The topology was introduced in 1979 by the French mathematician Michel Émery. Definition Let (\Omega,\mathcal,\,P) be a filtered probability space, where the filtration satisfies the usual conditions and T\in (0,\infty). Let \mathcal(P) be the space of real semimartingales and \mathcal(1) the space of simple predictable processes H with , H, =1. We define :\, X\, _:=\sup\limits_\mathbb\left (H\cdot X)_t, \right)\right Then (\mathcal(P),d) with the metric d(X,Y):=\, X-Y\, _ is a complete metric space In mathematical analysis, a metric space is called complete (or a Cauchy space) if every Cauchy sequence of points in has a limit that is also in . Intuitively, a space is complete if there are no "points miss ...

Martingale (probability Theory)
In probability theory, a martingale is a stochastic process in which the expected value of the next observation, given all prior observations, is equal to the most recent value. In other words, the conditional expectation of the next value, given the past, is equal to the present value. Martingales are used to model fair games, where future expected winnings are equal to the current amount regardless of past outcomes. History Originally, ''martingale (betting system), martingale'' referred to a class of betting strategy, betting strategies that was popular in 18th-century France. The simplest of these strategies was designed for a game in which the gambler wins their stake if a coin comes up heads and loses it if the coin comes up tails. The strategy had the gambler double their bet after every loss so that the first win would recover all previous losses plus win a profit equal to the original stake. As the gambler's wealth and available time jointly approach infinity, their pr ...

Topology
Topology (from the Greek language, Greek words , and ) is the branch of mathematics concerned with the properties of a Mathematical object, geometric object that are preserved under Continuous function, continuous Deformation theory, deformations, such as Stretch factor, stretching, Torsion (mechanics), twisting, crumpling, and bending; that is, without closing holes, opening holes, tearing, gluing, or passing through itself. A topological space is a Set (mathematics), set endowed with a structure, called a ''Topology (structure), topology'', which allows defining continuous deformation of subspaces, and, more generally, all kinds of List of continuity-related mathematical topics, continuity. Euclidean spaces, and, more generally, metric spaces are examples of topological spaces, as any distance or metric defines a topology. The deformations that are considered in topology are homeomorphisms and Homotopy, homotopies. A property that is invariant under such deformations is a to ...

Semimartingale
In probability theory, a real-valued stochastic process ''X'' is called a semimartingale if it can be decomposed as the sum of a local martingale and a càdlàg adapted finite-variation process. Semimartingales are "good integrators", forming the largest class of processes with respect to which the Itô integral and the Stratonovich integral can be defined. The class of semimartingales is quite large (including, for example, all continuously differentiable processes, Brownian motion and Poisson processes). Submartingales and supermartingales together represent a subset of the semimartingales. Definition A real-valued process ''X'' defined on the filtered probability space (Ω,''F'',(''F''''t'')''t'' ≥ 0,P) is called a semimartingale if it can be decomposed as :X_t = M_t + A_t where ''M'' is a local martingale and ''A'' is a càdlàg adapted process of locally bounded variation. This means that for almost all \omega \in \Omega and all compact intervals ...

Financial Mathematics
Mathematical finance, also known as quantitative finance and financial mathematics, is a field of applied mathematics, concerned with mathematical modeling in the Finance#Quantitative_finance, financial field. In general, there exist two separate branches of finance that require advanced quantitative techniques: Derivative (finance), derivatives pricing on the one hand, and risk management, risk and Investment management#Investment managers and portfolio structures, portfolio management on the other. Mathematical finance overlaps heavily with the fields of computational finance and financial engineering. The latter focuses on applications and modeling, often with the help of stochastic asset models, while the former focuses, in addition to analysis, on building tools of implementation for the models. Also related is quantitative investing, which relies on statistical and numerical models (and lately machine learning) as opposed to traditional fundamental analysis when investment ma ...

Stochastic Integral
Stochastic calculus is a branch of mathematics that operates on stochastic processes. It allows a consistent theory of integration to be defined for integrals of stochastic processes with respect to stochastic processes. This field was created and started by the Japanese mathematician Kiyosi Itô during World War II. The best-known stochastic process to which stochastic calculus is applied is the Wiener process (named in honor of Norbert Wiener), which is used for modeling Brownian motion as described by Louis Bachelier in 1900 and by Albert Einstein in 1905 and other physical diffusion processes in space of particles subject to random forces. Since the 1970s, the Wiener process has been widely applied in financial mathematics and economics to model the evolution in time of stock prices and bond interest rates. The main flavours of stochastic calculus are the Itô calculus and its variational relative the Malliavin calculus. For technical reasons the Itô integral is the mos ...

Predictable Process
In stochastic analysis, a part of the mathematical theory of probability, a predictable process is a stochastic process whose value is knowable at a prior time. The predictable processes form the smallest class that is closed under taking limits of sequences and contains all adapted left-continuous processes. Mathematical definition Discrete-time process Given a filtered probability space (\Omega,\mathcal,(\mathcal_n)_,\mathbb), then a stochastic process (X_n)_ is ''predictable'' if X_ is measurable with respect to the σ-algebra \mathcal_n for each ''n''. Continuous-time process Given a filtered probability space (\Omega,\mathcal,(\mathcal_t)_,\mathbb), then a continuous-time stochastic process (X_t)_ is ''predictable'' if X, considered as a mapping from \Omega \times \mathbb_ , is measurable with respect to the σ-algebra generated by all left-continuous adapted processes. This σ-algebra is also called the predictable σ-algebra. Examples * Every dete ...

Closure (topology)
In topology, the closure of a subset of points in a topological space consists of all points in together with all limit points of . The closure of may equivalently be defined as the union of and its boundary, and also as the intersection of all closed sets containing . Intuitively, the closure can be thought of as all the points that are either in or "very near" . A point which is in the closure of is a point of closure of . The notion of closure is in many ways dual to the notion of interior. Definitions Point of closure For S as a subset of a Euclidean space, x is a point of closure of S if every open ball centered at x contains a point of S (this point can be x itself). This definition generalizes to any subset S of a metric space X. Fully expressed, for X as a metric space with metric d, x is a point of closure of S if for every r > 0 there exists some s \in S such that the distance d(x, s) < r (x = s is allowed). Another way to expre ...

Filtration (probability Theory)
In the theory of stochastic processes, a subdiscipline of probability theory, filtrations are totally ordered collections of subsets that are used to model the information that is available at a given point and therefore play an important role in the formalization of random (stochastic) processes. Definition Let (\Omega, \mathcal A, P) be a probability space and let I be an index set with a total order \leq (often \N , \R^+ , or a subset of \mathbb R^+ ). For every i \in I let \mathcal F_i be a sub-''σ''-algebra of \mathcal A . Then : \mathbb F:= (\mathcal F_i)_ is called a filtration, if \mathcal F_k \subseteq \mathcal F_\ell for all k \leq \ell . So filtrations are families of ''σ''-algebras that are ordered non-decreasingly. If \mathbb F is a filtration, then (\Omega, \mathcal A, \mathbb F, P) is called a filtered probability space. Example Let (X_n)_ be a stochastic process In probability theory and related fields, a stochastic () or rand ...

Complete Metric Space
In mathematical analysis, a metric space is called complete (or a Cauchy space) if every Cauchy sequence of points in has a limit that is also in . Intuitively, a space is complete if there are no "points missing" from it (inside or at the boundary). For instance, the set of rational numbers is not complete, because e.g. \sqrt is "missing" from it, even though one can construct a Cauchy sequence of rational numbers that converges to it (see further examples below). It is always possible to "fill all the holes", leading to the ''completion'' of a given space, as explained below. Definition Cauchy sequence A sequence x_1, x_2, x_3, \ldots of elements from X of a metric space (X, d) is called Cauchy if for every positive real number r > 0 there is a positive integer N such that for all positive integers m, n > N, d(x_m, x_n) < r. Complete space A metric space (X, d) is complete if any of the following equivalent conditions are satisfied: #Every Cauchy seq ...
