Wald's martingale

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

In probability theory Wald's martingale, named after Abraham Wald and more commonly known as the geometric Brownian motion, is a stochastic process of the form

for any real value λ where Wt is a Wiener process.[1]: 32 [2]: 261 [3] The process is a martingale.[1]
