Brownian model of financial markets as: Note that formula_21 and formula_139 are absolutely continuous with respect to each other, i.e. they are equivalent. Also, according to Girsanov's theorem, is a formula_6-dimensional Brownian motion process on the filtration formula_146 with respect to formula_139. A complete financial market is one that allows effective hedging of the risk inherent in any investment strategy. Let formula_89 be a standard financial market, and formula_149 be an formula_140-measurable random variable, such that: The market formula_89 is said to be "complete" if every such formula_149 is "financeable", i.e. if there is an formula_155-financed portfolio process formula_156, such that its associated wealth process
Brownian excursion Brownian excursion In probability theory a Brownian excursion process is a stochastic process that is closely related to a Wiener process (or Brownian motion). Realisations of Brownian excursion processes are essentially just realizations of a Wiener process selected to satisfy certain conditions. In particular, a Brownian excursion process is a Wiener process conditioned to be positive and to take the value 0 at time 1. Alternatively, it is a Brownian bridge process conditioned to be positive. BEPs are important because, among other reasons, they naturally arise as the limit process of a number of conditional functional central limit theorems. A
