Démonstration simplifiée d'un théorème de Knight (Martingale theory)
A well known theorem (Dambis, Dubins) asserts that a continuous martingale reduces to Brownian motion when time-changed by its own increasing process. Knight's theorem (LN in M 190) asserts that this operation performed on $n$ orthogonal martingales yields $n$ independent Brownian motions. The result is extended to Poisson processes
Comment: Still simpler proofs can be given, see 1448 (included in Revuz-Yor Continuous Martingales and Brownian Motion, Chapter V)

On the Krickeberg decomposition of continuous martingales (Martingale theory)
The problem investigated is whether the two positive martingales occurring in the Krickeberg decomposition of a $L^1$-bounded continuous martingale of a filtration $({\cal F}_t)$ are themselves continuous. It is shown that the answer is yes only under very stringent conditions: there exists a sub-filtration $({\cal G}_t)$ such that 1) all ${\cal G}$-martingales are continuous 2) the continuous ${\cal F}$-martingales are exactly the ${\cal G}$-martingales

Sur l'intégrabilité uniforme des martingales exponentielles (Martingale theory)
The main result of this paper is the following: Let $X$ be a martingale which is continuous and bounded in $L^1$ (both conditions are essential). Then $X$ is uniformly integrable if and only if $tP\{X^{*}>t\}$ or equivalently $tP\{S(X)>t\}$ tend to $0$ as $t\rightarrow\infty$, where $S(X)$ is the usual square function. The methods (using a good lambda inequality) are close to 1404

On the tails of the supremum and the quadratic variation of strictly local martingales (Martingale theory)
The asymptotic tails of the current maximum and the quadratic variation of a positive continuous local martingale are compared. Applications to strict local martingales associated with transient diffusions, such as Bessel processes, and remarkable identities for Bessel functions are given
Comment: In discrete time, see the following article 3113. Related results are due to Takaoka 3313

Closed sets supporting a continuous divergent martingale (Martingale theory)
This note gives a characterization of all closed subsets $F$ of $R^d$ such that, for every $F$-valued continuous martingale $X$, the limit $X_\infty$ exists in $F$ (or $R^d$) with non-zero probability. The criterion is as follows: To each $F$ is associated a smaller closed set $F'$ obtained, roughly speaking, by chopping off all prominent parts of $F$; this map $F\mapsto F'$ is iterated, giving a decreasing sequence $(F^n)$ with limit $F^\infty$; the condition is that $F^\infty$ is empty. (If $d=2$, $F^\infty$ is also the largest closed subset of $F$ such that all connected components of its complementary are convex)

On the martingales obtained by an extension due to Saisho, Tanemura and Yor of Pitman's theorem (Stochastic calculus)
Martingales involving the future minimum of a transient Bessel process are studied, and shown to satisfy a non Markovian SDE. In dimension $>3$, uniqueness in law does not hold for this SDE. This generalizes Saisho-Tanemura Tokyo J. Math. 13 (1990)

Some remarks on Pitman's theorem (Stochastic calculus)
For certain transient diffusions $X$, local martingales which are functins of $X_t$ and the future infimum $\inf_{u\ge t}X_u$ are constructed. This extends the preceding article 3125

Some remarks on the uniform integrability of continuous martingales (Martingale theory)
For a continuous local martingale which converges a.s., a general relation links the asymptotic tails of the maximal variable and the quadratic variation. This unifies previous results by Azéma-Gundy-Yor 1406, Elworthy-Li-Yor 3112 and Probab. Theory Related Fields 115 (1999)
