Fractional Ito calculus

We derive Itô–type change of variable formulas for smooth functionals of irregular paths with nonzero pth variation along a sequence of partitions, where p ≥ 1 is arbitrary, in terms of fractional derivative operators. Our results extend the results of the Föllmer–Itô calculus to the general case of...

description We derive Itô–type change of variable formulas for smooth functionals of irregular paths with nonzero pth variation along a sequence of partitions, where p ≥ 1 is arbitrary, in terms of fractional derivative operators. Our results extend the results of the Föllmer–Itô calculus to the general case of paths with ‘fractional’ regularity. In the case where p is not an integer, we show that the change of variable formula may sometimes contain a nonzero ‘fractional’ Itô remainder term and provide a representation for this remainder term. These results are then extended to functionals of paths with nonzero φ-variation and multidimensional paths. Using these results, we derive an isometry property for the pathwise Föllmer integral in terms of φ-variation.
