2 Abstract A generalized bridge is the law of a stochastic process that is conditioned on multiple linear functionals of its path. We consider canonical representation of the bridges. In the canonical representation the linear spaces L t (X ) = span {X s ; s t} coinside for all t < T for both the original process and its bridge representation. A Gaussian process X = (X t ) t [,T ] is prediction-invertible if it can be recovered (in law, at least) from its prediction martingale: X t = t p 1 T (t, s) de[x T F X s ]. In discrete time all non-degenerate Gaussian processes are prediction-invertible. In continuous time this is most probably not true. 2 / 37

6 Generalized (linearly conditioned) Bridges Let X = (X t ) t [,T ] be a continuous Gaussian process with positive definite covariance function R, mean function m of bounded variation, and X = m(). We consider the conditioning, or bridging, of X on N linear functionals G T = [GT i ]N i=1 of its paths: G T (X ) = T [ T g(t) dx t = ] N g i (t) dx t. i=1 6 / 37

We consider the conditioning, or bridging, of X on N linear functionals G T = [GT i ]N i=1 of its paths: G T (X ) = T [ T g(t) dx t = ] N g i (t) dx t. i=1 Remark (On Linear Independence of Conditionings) We assume, without any loss of generality, that the functions g i are linearly independent. Indeed, if this is not the case then the linearly dependent, or redundant, components of g can simply be removed from the conditioning (1) below without changing it. 6 / 37
8 Generalized (linearly conditioned) Bridges Informally, the generalized (Gaussian) bridge X g;y is (the law of) the (Gaussian) process X conditioned on the set { T } N { T } g(t) dx t = y = g i (t) dx t = y i. (1) i=1 The rigorous definition is given in the next slide. 7 / 37

(1) i=1 The rigorous definition is given in the next slide. Remark (Canonical Space Framework) For the sake of convenience, we will work on the canonical filtered probability space (Ω, F, F, P), where Ω = C[, T ], P corresponds to the Gaussian coordinate process X t (ω) = ω(t): P = P[X ]. The filtration F = (F t ) t [,T ] is the intrinsic filtration of the coordinate process X that is augmented with the null-sets and made right-continuous, and F = F T. 7 / 37

13 Generalized (linearly conditioned) Bridges Remark (Technical Observations) 1 Note that the conditioning on the P-null-set is not a problem, since the canonical space of continuous processes is small enough to admit regular conditional laws. 2 As a measure P g;y the generalized Gaussian bridge is unique, but it has several different representations X g;y. Indeed, for any representation of the bridge one can combine it with any P-measure-preserving transformation to get a new representation. 9 / 37

26 Canonical Representation for Martingales Remark (Gaussian Specialities) 1 Since the conditional laws of Gaussian processes are Gaussian and Gaussian spaces are linear, the assumptions Xt g;y L t (X ) and X t L t (X g;y ) are the same as assuming that Xt g;y is Ft X -measurable and X t is F X g;y t -measurable (and, consequently, Ft X = F X g;y t ). This fact is very special to Gaussian processes. Indeed, in general conditioned processes such as generalized bridges are not linear transformations of the underlying process. 16 / 37

This fact is very special to Gaussian processes. Indeed, in general conditioned processes such as generalized bridges are not linear transformations of the underlying process. 2 Another Gaussian fact here is that the bridges are Gaussian. In general conditioned processes do not belong to the same family of distributions as the original process. 16 / 37

45 Canonical Representation for Martingales Next we solve the stochastic differential equation (4) of Corollary 6. In general, solving a Volterra Stieltjes equation like (4) in a closed form is difficult. Of course, the general theory of Volterra equations suggests that the solution will be of the form (6) of next theorem, where l g is the resolvent kernel of l g determined by the resolvent equation (7) given below. Also, the general theory suggests that the resolvent kernel can be calculated implicitly by using the Neumann series. In our case the kernel l g is a quadratic form that factorizes in its argument. This allows us to calculate the resolvent l g explicitly as (5) below. 23 / 37
46 Canonical Representation for Martingales Theorem (Solution to an SDE) Let s t [, T ]. Define the Volterra kernel l g (t) g(t, s) := l g (t, s) g (s) = g (t)g (t) g 1 (t) g(s) g (s).

In the next definition we assume, among other things, that the kernel p exists as a real, and not only formal, function. We also assume that the kernel p is invertible. 28 / 37
56 Prediction-Invertible Processes Definition (Prediction-Invertibility) A Gaussian process X is prediction-invertible if there exists a kernel p such that its prediction martingale ˆX is continuous, can be represented as ˆX t = t p(t, s) dx s, 29 / 37

58 Prediction-Invertible Processes Remark In general it seems to be a difficult problem to determine whether a Gaussian process is prediction-invertible or not.

In the discrete time non-degenerate case all Gaussian processes are prediction-invertible. In continuous time the situation is more difficult, as the next example illustrates. Nevertheless, we can immediately see that we must have R(t, s) = t s p 1 (t, u) p 1 (s, u) d ˆX u, where ˆX u = Var (E [X T F u ]). However, this criterion does not seem to be very helpful in practice. 3 / 37
60 Prediction-Invertible Processes Example (Fine Points of Prediction-Invertibility) Consider the Gaussian slope X t = tξ, t [, T ], where ξ is a standard normal random variable. Now, if we consider the raw filtration Gt X = σ(x s ; s t), then X is not prediction invertible. Indeed, then ˆX = but ˆX t = X T, if t (, T ]. So, ˆX is not continuous. On the other hand, the augmented filtration is simply Ft X = σ(ξ) for all t [, T ]. So, ˆX = X T. Note, however, that in both cases the slope X can be recovered from the prediction martingale: X t = t ˆX T t. 31 / 37
