Les résultats récents de Burkholder, Davis et Gundy (Martingale theory)
The well-known norm equivalence between the maximum and the square-function of a martingale in moderate Orlicz spaces is presented following the celebrated papers of Burkholder-Gundy (Acta Math., 124, 1970), Burkholder-Davis-Gundy (Proc. 6-th Berkeley Symposium, 3, 1972). The technique of proof is now obsolete

Sur le lemme de La Vallée Poussin et un théorème de Bismut (Measure theory, General theory of processes)
Bismut proved that every optional process which belongs to the class (D) is the optional projection of a (non-adapted) process whose supremum is in $L^1$. This is given a more precise form, using the relation between uniform integrability and moderate Orlicz spaces

Inégalités de convexité pour les processus croissants et les sousmartingales (Martingale theory)
Several inequalities concerning general convex functions are classical in martingale theory (e.g. generalizations of Doob's inequality) and the general theory of processes (e.g. estimates on dual projections of increasing processes). The proof of such inequalities given here is slightly more natural than those in Dellacherie-Meyer, Probabilités et Potentiels B, Chapter VI

Présentation unifiée de certaines inégalités de la théorie des martingales (Martingale theory)
This paper is a synthesis of many years of work on martingale inequalities, and certainly one of the most influential among the papers which appeared in these volumes. It is shown how all main inequalities can be reduced to simple principles: 1) Basic distribution inequalities between pairs of random variables (Doob'', domination'', good lambda'' and Garsia-Neveu''), and 2) Simple lemmas from the general theory of processes
Comment: This paper has been rewritten as Chapter XXIII of Dellacherie-Meyer, Probabilités et Potentiel E ; see also 1621. A striking example of the power of these methods is Barlow-Yor, {\sl Jour. Funct. Anal.} 49,1982

Caractérisation d'ensembles convexes de $L^1$ ou $H^1$ (Stochastic calculus, Functional analysis)
This is a new and simpler approach to the crucial functional analytic lemma in 1354 (the proof that semimartingales are the stochastic integrators in $L^0$). That is, given a convex set $K\subset L^1$ containing $0$, find a condition for the existence of $Z>0$ in $L^\infty$ such that $\sup_{X\in K}E[ZX]<\infty$. A similar result is discussed for $H^1$ instead of $L^1$
Comment: This lemma, instead of the original one, has proved very useful in mathematical finance

Une inégalité de martingales avec poids (Martingale theory)
Chevalier has strengthened the Burkholder inequalities into an equivalence of $L^p$ norms between $M^{\ast}\lor Q(M)$ and $M^{\ast}\land Q(M)$, where $M$ is a martingale, $M^{\ast}$ is its maximal function and $Q(M)$ its quadratic variation. This has been extended to all moderate Orlicz spaces in 1404. The present paper further extends the result to the Orlicz spaces of a law $\widehat P$ equivalent to $P$, provided the density is an $(A_p)$ weight (see 1326)

Martingales in manifolds - Definition, examples and behaviour under maps (Stochastic differential geometry)
Martingales in manifolds have been introduced independently by Meyer 1505 and the author (Ph.D. Thesis). This short note is a review of that thesis; here, the definition of a manifold-valued martingale is by its behaviour under convex functions
Comment: More details are given in Bull. L.M.S. 15 (1983), Publ R.I.M.S. Kyoto~19 (1983) and Zeit. für W-theorie 65 (1984). Characterizating of manifold-valued martingales by convex functions has become a powerful tool: see for instance Émery's book Stochastic Calculus in Manifolds (Springer, 1989) and his St-Flour lectures (Springer LNM 1738)

Fonctions convexes et semimartingales dans une variété (Stochastic differential geometry)
On a manifold endowed with a connexion, convex functions can be defined, and transform manifold-valued martingales into real-valued local submartingales (see Darling 1659). This is extended here to the case of non-smooth convex functions. Ii is also shown that they make manifold-valued semimartingales into real semimartingales

Sur le barycentre d'une probabilité dans une variété (Stochastic differential geometry)
In a manifold $V$ (endowed with a connection), convex functions and continuous martingales can be defined, but expectations cannot. This article proposes to define the mass-centre of a probability $\mu$ on $V$ as a whole set of points, consisting of all $x$ in $V$ such that $f(x)\le\mu(f)$ for all bounded, convex $f$ on $V$. If $V$ is small enough, it is shown that this is equivalent to demanding that there exists (on a suitable filtered probability space) a continuous martingale $X$ such that $X_0=x$ and $X_1$ has law $\mu$
Comment: The conjecture (due to Émery) at the bottom of page 232 has been disproved by Kendall (J. London Math. Soc. 46, 1992), as pointed out in 2650
