A stochastic sewing lemma and applications
arXiv:1810.10500 · doi:10.1214/20-EJP442
Abstract
We introduce a stochastic version of Gubinelli's sewing lemma, providing a sufficient condition for the convergence in moments of some random Riemann sums. Compared with the deterministic sewing lemma, adaptiveness is required and the regularity restriction is improved by a half. The limiting process exhibits a Doob-Meyer-type decomposition. Relations with Itô calculus are established. To illustrate further potential applications, we use the stochastic sewing lemma in studying stochastic differential equations driven by Brownian motions or fractional Brownian motions with irregulardrifts.
