measurability of stochastic processes


For a continuous-time stochastic process adapted to a given filtration (http://planetmath.org/FiltrationOfSigmaAlgebras) (t)t+ on a measurable spaceMathworldPlanetmathPlanetmath (Ω,), there are various conditions which can be placed either on its sample paths or on its measurability when considered as a function from +×Ω to . The following theorem lists the dependencies between these properties.

Theorem.

Let (Xt)tR+ be a real valued stochastic processMathworldPlanetmath. Then, X is optional if it is adapted and right-continuous, it is predictable if it is adapted and left-continuous. Furthermore, each of the following properties implies the next.

  1. 1.

    X is predictable.

  2. 2.

    X is optional.

  3. 3.

    X is progressive.

  4. 4.

    X is adapted and jointly measurable.
