Resolution of the skew Brownian motion equations with stochastic calculus for signed measures

Abstract

Abstract Contributions of the present paper consist of two parts. In the first one, we contribute to the theory of stochastic calculus for signed measures. For instance, we provide some results permitting to characterize martingales and Brownian motion both defined under a signed measure. We also prove that the uniformly integrable martingales (defined with respect to a signed measure) can be expressed as relative martingales and we provide some new results to the study of the class . The second part is devoted to the construction of solutions for the homogeneous skew Brownian motion equation and for the inhomogeneous skew Brownian motion equation. To do this, our ingredients are the techniques and results developed in the first part that we apply on some stochastic processes borrowed from the theory of stochastic calculus for signed measures. Our methods are inspired by those used by Bouhadou and Ouknine in [2013]. Moreover, their solution of the inhomogeneous skew Brownian motion equation is a particular case of those we propose in this paper.
