Description
Summary:<p>We present several constructions of paths and processes with finite quadratic variation along a refining sequence of partitions, extending previous constructions to the non-uniform case. We study in particular the dependence of quadratic variation with respect to the sequence of partitions for these constructions. We identify a class of paths whose quadratic variation along a partition sequence is invariant under <em>coarsening</em>. This class is shown to include typical sample paths of Brownian motion, but also paths which are 1/2 -H&ouml;lder continuous. Finally, we show how to extend these constructions to higher dimensions.</p>
