A Functional Ito-Formula for Dawson-Watanabe Superprocesses (2010.02274v1)

Abstract: We derive an Ito-formula for the Dawson-Watanabe superprocess, a well-known class of measure-valued processes, extending the classical Ito-formula with respect to two aspects. Firstly, we extend the state-space of the underlying process $(X(t)){t\in [0,T]}$ to an infinite-dimensional one - the space of finite measure. Secondly, we extend the formula to functions $F(t,X_t)$ depending on the entire paths $X_t=(X(s\wedge t)){s \in [0,T]}$ up to times $t$. This later extension is usually called functional Ito-formula. Finally we remark on the application to predictable representation for martingales associated with superprocesses.
