Keywords: Sochasic inegral, Kolmogorov problem. 1.Inroducion Le X() be a sochasic process for 0; he random variable X( ) X( ) is called he incremen of he process X() over he inerval [, ]. A process X() is said o be homogeneous if he disribuion funcion of he incremen X( + τ) X() depends only on he lengh τ of he inerval bu is independen of. Two inervals are said o be non overlapping inervals if hey have no common inerior poin. A process X() is called a process wih independen incremens if he incremens over non overlapping inervals are independen. A process is said o be coninuous a he poin if for any > 0 lim P( X( + τ) X() > ε) = 0. a process is coninuous in an inerval [A, B] if i is coninuous in every poin of [A, B]. Le X() be a homogeneous and coninuous process wih independen incremens and le us denoe he characerisic funcion of he incremen X( + τ) X() by f(u, τ). I is known ha f(u, τ) is infiniely divisible and ha f(u, τ) = f(u, 1). Le b be a funcion defined in [A, B] and υ a non negaive funcion in [A, B]. Le us consider for each ineger n a subdivision of [A, B] (D ) A =, <, <.. <, = B (n = 1,2,.. ) and assume ha Max,, 0 as n

2 386 Dr. T. Vasanhi and Mrs. M. Geeha In each subinerval,,, selec a poin, (k = 1,2,.., n). Le us form he sums S = b, X υ, X υ, If he sequence S converges in probabiliy o a random variable S, and is his limi is independen of he choice of he subdivision (D ) and he poins,, hen say ha S is a sochasic inegral in he sense of convergence in probabiliy and wrie S = b()dxυ(). The following heorem gives a condiion ensuring he exisence of he sochasic inegral in he sense of convergence in probabiliy. Theorem 1.1 Le X() be a homogeneous and coninuous process wih independen incremens defined for 0. Suppose ha he funcion b is coninuous in [A, B] and υ is a non decreasing, non negaive and lef coninuous funcion in [A, B]. Then he sochasic inegral b()dxυ() (1.1) exiss in he sense of convergence in probabiliy and is characerisic funcion h is given by log h(u) = log f(u b())dυ() (1.2) Le b and υ be as in heorem 1.1. I is well known ha here exiss a finie Borel measure V wih suppor conained in [A, B] such ha 0 if < A V((, )) = υ() υ(a) if A B υ(b) υ(a) if > B Pu υ () = V(b (, )) hen υ is a non decreasing, non negaive and lef coninuous funcion. Furher we pu, C = min b() and D = max b()

3 Represenaion of Sochasic Process by Means of Sochasic Inegrals 387 By heorem 1.1 he sochasic inegral dxυ () (1.3) exiss and is characerisic funcion h is given by log h (u) = log f(u b())dυ () by he ransform formula for inegrals, we have log f(u b())dυ() = log f(u )dυ (). Theorem 1.2 Le X(), b and υ be as in Theorem 1.1. Then he inegrals (1.1) and (1.3) are idenically disribued. 2. Represenaion Theorem Theorem 2.1 Le X() be a homogeneous and coninuous process wih independen incremens defined for 0 and le he Levy canonical represenaion of he characerisic funcion of X(0) X(1) be given by a, σ, M and N. Le υ be a non decreasing, non negaive and lef coninuous funcion in [A, B]. Then he Levy canonical represenaion for he characerisic funcion of he sochasic inegral dxυ() is given by he following formulas: a = a + (1 ) σ = σ dυ() (,) M (x) = N x dυ() (,) (,) N (x) = M x dυ() (,) x (1 + (x) )(1 + x d(m( x) + N(x)) + dυ(); ) (,) + M x dυ() (,) (,) + N x dυ() (,) (2.1) (2.2) (2.3) (x < 0) (2.4) (x > 0) (2.5) Lemma 2.1 The funcion g is an infiniely divisible characerisic funcion if, and only if, i can be

4 388 Dr. T. Vasanhi and Mrs. M. Geeha wrien in he form log g(u) = iau + σ 2 u + r(u, x)dm(x) + r(u, x) dn(x) where a, σ are real consans; M and n are non decreasing in he inervals (, 0) and (0, ) respecively, wih M( ) = N( ) = 0 x dm(x) < and x dn(x) < for every ε > 0 and r(u, x) = e 1 (iux (1 + x )) (2.6) Proof of heorem 2.1 Wih ou loss of generaliy le us assume ha A 0 B. Firs we assume ha here exiss a number > 0 such ha is a poin of coninuiy of υ and υ( ) υ( ) = 0 (2.7) The characerisic funcion of (2.1) is denoed by h. Then by heorem 1.1 we have log h(u) = log f(u )dυ() Now le us define a funcion s by s(u, x, ) = r(u, x) r(u, x) where in view of (2.6) s(u, x, ) = i(1 )x u (1 + (x) )(1 + x ) (2.8) Since s(u, x, ) = o(x ) as x 0 and s(u, x, ) = o(1) as x he funcion s is inegrable wih respec o M and N. By Lemma 2.1 and he definiion of s we have, log f(u) = iau σ 2 (u) + (r(u, x) + s(u, x, ))dm(x) + r(u, x) + s(u, x, ) dn(x) (2.9) By virue of (2.8) and (2.9) le us obain log h(u) = iau dv() σ 2 u dv()

5 Represenaion of Sochasic Process by Means of Sochasic Inegrals s(u, x, )dm(x) + s(u, x, ) dn(x) dυ() + r(u, x)dm(x) + r(u, x) dn(x) dυ() Using he definiions of a and σ we can wrie his relaion in he form log h(u) = ia σ + r(u, x)dn(x)dυ() 2 (u) + r(u, x)dm(x)dυ() (2.10) and in view of (2.7), Le us have log h(u) = ia σ 2 (u) + r(u, x)dm(x)dυ() + r(u, x)dm(x)dυ() + r(u, x)dn(x)dυ() + r(u, x)dn(x)dυ() (2.11) Decomposing he hird erm on he righ hand side of (2.11) we ge for every ε > 0. I = r(u, x)dm(x)dυ() = r(u, x)dm(x)dυ() + + r(u, x)dn(x)dυ() = I + I Applying L Hospial s rule wice we find

6 390 Dr. T. Vasanhi and Mrs. M. Geeha r(u, x) lim x = (u) 2 Hence here is a consan C such ha for fixed u and [A, ] r(u, x) C (u) x Therefore le us ge for I he esimaion (ε 0 +) I C u dυ() Furher we can ransform I in he following way. so le us obain as ε 0 x dm(x) = o(1) I = r(u, x)d M x dυ() = r(u, x)d M x dυ() I = r(u, x)d M x dυ() Transforming he fourh, fifh and sixh erms of (2.11) in a similar manner o he hird one we ge log h(u) = ia σ 2 (u) + r(u, x)d M x dυ() + r(u, x)d + r(u, x)d M x dυ() N x dυ() + r(u, x)d N x dυ() Finally, using he definiion of M and N, we can rewrie his relaion in he form,

7 Represenaion of Sochasic Process by Means of Sochasic Inegrals 391 log h(u) = ia σ 2 (u) + r(u, x)d M (x) + r(u, x)d N (x) Le us complee he proof by showing ha a, σ, M and N saisfy he condiion of Lemma 2.1. Obviously a and σ are real consans and σ 0. By definiion i is easily seen ha M and N are non decreasing in he inervals (, 0) and (0, ), respecively, having he properies M ( ) = N ( ) = 0 For every ε > 0 we obain he inequaliy x dn (x) = x dn(x)dυ() + dυ() x dn(x) + dυ() x dm(x)dυ() x dm(x) < Analogously, le us ge x dm (x) < Then Lemma 2.1 shows he saemen provided ha (2.7) is valid. Now le us urning o he general case n which (2.7) need no be rue. Pu for n max ( 1/A, 1/B) υ() if 1 n υ () = υ( 1 n) if 1 n < 1 n υ() if > 1 n Obviously, we have lim υ () = υ() (2.12) and he funcions υ saisfying (2.7) are non decreasing, non negaive and lef coninuous. Hence le us can apply he firs par of he proof o he sochasic inegrals dxυ () (2.13) and obain represenaion of a, σ, M and N by formulas analogous o (2.2) (2.5) using Helly s second heorem, we ge

8 392 Dr. T. Vasanhi and Mrs. M. Geeha lim log f(u )dυ() = log f(u )dυ() (2.14) Because log f(u ) considered as funcion of is coninuous and bounded and by (2.12) he sequence υ converges weakly o v. Le us denoe he characerisic funcion of (2.13) by h. In view of heorem 1.1. relaion (2.14) is equivalen lim h (u) = h(u) Using he known fac ha under his circumsance a a, σ σ, M M and N N ( sands for weak convergence) he saemen follows. 3.ON A PROBLEM OF KOLMOGOROV CONCERNING THE NORMAL DISTRIBUTION The following heorem gives an affirmaive answer o a quesion posed by A. N. Kolmogorov. Theorem3.1 Le F be an infiniely divisible (i.d.) disribuion funcion and F (x) == Φ(x) = e du for x < 0; hen F (x) Φ(x) For he proof le us sar by collecing ogeher several lemmas. Lemma 3.2 Le F be i. d. and e df(x) <, y > 0. Then he Levy represenaion of f() = e df(x) log f(iy) = ay + σ 2 y + r(y, u)dm(u) + r(y, u) dn(u) where r(y, u) = e 1 + yu 1 + u holds for y > 0. Lemma 3.3 Under he assumpions of lemma 3.2 log f(iy) increases a leas exponenially, if M(U) 0.

9 Represenaion of Sochasic Process by Means of Sochasic Inegrals 393 Proof Using he formula u r(y, u) = e 1 + yu y 1 + u we obain for η > 0 r(y, u) dn(u) = y l(yu)udn(u) y dn(u) 1 + u + r(y, u) dn(u) u where l(υ) = υ (e 1 + υ) > 0 whence we ge he esimaion r(y, u) dn(u) y dn(u) 1 + u dn(u) = L (y) (say) u Now we choose < p < q < 0 and assume M (q) > M (p). Then we obain from lemma 3.2 log f(iy) ay + σ 2 y + e 1 y u 1 + u dm(u) + L (y) This proves he asserion. Lemma 3.4 Le Φ (x) 2Φ(x), x < 0 = 1, x > 0 hen he corresponding characerisic funcion (c. f.) is φ () = e 1 i 2 π e dw wih he asympoic behaviour φ (iy) = e 2 + oe (y ). Proof We have o calculae

10 394 Dr. T. Vasanhi and Mrs. M. Geeha f() = 2 π e e du = 2 π e e () du The second inegral can be evaluaed by means of conour inegraion saring wih 0 = e () dς + ( ) + ( ) + ( ) and leing Z. Equaion (4) is an easy consequence of (3). Lemma 3.5 Le f() be he c. f. of an i. d. disribuion F(x). Then F(0) = 0, F(ε) > 0 if and only if in he corresponding Levy represenaion characerized by (â, σ, M, N). We have σ = 0, M(u) 0(u < 0), udn(u) <, a + u dn(u) 1 + u = 0 In his case we have log f(iy) = (e 1) dn(u) Proof Puing G(x) = 2F (x) 1, x > 0, we represen F by F(x) = 1 2 [Φ (x) + G(x)]. We denoe he c. f. of G(x) by g() wih he propery g(iy) < 1 (y > 0) and obain by lemma 3 log f(iy) = e df(x) = 1 2 [φ (iy) + g(iy)] = e 1 + Oe i.e log f(iy) = y 2 + Oe By lemma 1 we also have he represenaion (1). We are going o compare he asympoic (y ) behaviour of (1) and (5). From Lemma 2 we immediaely ge he conclusion M(u) 0( u < 0 ).

11 Represenaion of Sochasic Process by Means of Sochasic Inegrals 395 So we have o direc our aenion o he funcion N (u) (u > 0), which always has he propery We have o consider wo cases. u dn(u) <. α) udn(u) <. The funcion l(u) in (2) is increasing, hence, puing H(u) = υdn(υ)(nb: H(+0) = ), We have for η > 0 R (y) =: l(yu)udn(u) > l(υ)dh υ y e [H(η) H(y )] Therefore, by assumpion α), lim R (y) =. Now we conclude from (1) and log f(iy) = σ 2 y + y a + R (y) u 1 + u (e 1) dn(u) + u 1 + u dn(u) + dn(u) = σ 2 y + yr (y)(1 + o(1)) This formula mus be compared wih (5). Le us firs assume ha lim y R (y) = 0. Then i follows σ = 1, and we have he conradicion yr (y) = Oe On he oher hand, if we have lim y R (y) = l > 0, hen we ge σ 2 + l = 1 2 Now we noe ha (as l(v)v < с, v > 0)

12 396 Dr. T. Vasanhi and Mrs. M. Geeha yr (y) = y l(yu) yu u dn(u) cy u dn(u), Therefore l can be made arbirarily small. Hence we again obain σ = 1 and he wrong equaion (6). So assumpion α) is false. In his case (1) yields β) udn(u) <. log f(iy) = σ 2 y + y a + u 1 + u dn(u) + S (y) + (e 1) dn(u) where S (y) = (e 1) dn(u) = y e 1 d υdn(u) yu The inegrand is increasing, i. e. y υdn(u) S (y) 0 Comparing (7) and (5), we now immediaely obain σ = 1 and a + u 1 + u dn(u) + 1 y S (y) = Oe Puing we ge from (9) lim y S (y) = s a + u 1 + u dn(u) + S = 0 Bu (8) shows, has vdn(v) can be chosen arbirarily small. Therefore a + u 1 u dn(u) = 0

13 Represenaion of Sochasic Process by Means of Sochasic Inegrals 397 From Lemma 4 and (7) we now conclude ha f(iy) = e f(iy) where f() is he c. f. of a disribuion funcion F(x) wih F(0) = 0, F(ε) > 0. In view of (5) his is possible only for f(iy) 1, i. e. N(u) = N(u) 0. Finally we obain a = 0 from (10). The proof is complee. 4.References [1] Lukacs, E. (1969). A characerizaion of sable process. J.
