finite variation process
In the theory of stochastic processes![]()
, the term finite-variation process is used to refer to a process whose paths are right-continuous and have finite total variation
![]()
over every compact time interval, with probability one. See, for example, the Poisson process
![]()
.
It can be shown that any function on the real numbers with finite total variation has left and right limits everywhere. Consequently, finite variation processes are always cadlag.
