On random convex analysis -- the analytic foundation of the module approach to conditional risk measures

arXiv:1210.1848

Abstract

To provide a solid analytic foundation for the module approach to conditional risk measures, this paper establishes a complete random convex analysis over random locally convex modules by simultaneously considering the two kinds of topologies (namely the --topology and the locally -- convex topology). Then, we make use of the advantage of the --topology and grasp the local property of --convex conditional risk measures to prove that every --convex --conditional risk measure () can be uniquely extended to an --convex --conditional risk measure and that the dual representation theorem of the former can also be regarded as a special case of that of the latter, which shows that the study of --conditional risk measures can be incorporated into that of --conditional risk measures. In particular, in the process we find that combining the countable concatenation hull of a set and the local property of conditional risk measures is a very useful analytic skill that may considerably simplify and improve the study of --convex conditional risk measures.
