Poisson-process ${X_t, t ge 0}$ with $lambda>0$. Then $X_t^2$ is a submartingale adapted to the canonical...












0














Let ${X_t, t ge 0}$ be a homogenous Poisson-process with rate $lambda>0$.
I want to show that both $X_t$ and $X_t^2$ are submartingales adapted to the canonical filtration ${mathcal{F_t}^X, t ge 0}$.



$E[X_t|mathcal{F_s}^X]=E[X_s+(X_t-X_s)|mathcal{F_s}^X]=E[X_s|mathcal{F_s}^X]+E[X_t-X_s|mathcal{F_s}^X]=X_s+E[X_t-X_s]=X_s+(t-s)lambda$



So we have $E[X_t|mathcal{F_s}^X]ge X_s$ which means that $X_t$ is a submartingale adapted to the canonical filtration ${mathcal{F_t}^X, t ge 0}$. Is that correct so far?




I'm struggling to show the same for $X_t^2$ so I could use some help there.




Thanks in advance!



$E[X_t^2|mathcal{F_s}^X]=E[X_s^2+(X_t^2-X_s^2)|mathcal{F_s}^X]=E[X_s^2|mathcal{F_s}^X]+E[X_t^2-X_s^2|mathcal{F_s}^X]=X_s^2+E[X_t^2-X_s^2]ge X_s^2+((t-s)lambda)^2$

  • Why are you struggling? Either Jensen inequality, or an elementary computations quite similar to the one you present, allow to conclude right away.

  • @Did I tried using Jensen inequality in the last step now, see my edit above. Can I show it like this?

  • ?? You should explain why you think that $$E[X_t^2-X_s^2|mathcal{F_s}^X]=E[X_t^2-X_s^2]$$ and that $$E[X_t^2-X_s^2]ge ((t-s)lambda)^2$$

  • @Did okay I got it now. I also need to determine the Doob decomposition of $X_t$ . Does $M_t=X_t-lambda t$ and $A_t=lambda t$ work?
