An alternative process, the predictable quadratic variation is sometimes used for locally square integrable martingales. This is written as M t {\displaystyle \langle M_{t}\rangle } , and is defined to be the unique right-continuous and increasing predictable process starting at zero such that M 2 − M {\displaystyle M^{2}-\langle M\rangle ...
These are processes which can be decomposed as X = M + A for a local martingale M and finite variation process A. Important examples of such processes include Brownian motion, which is a martingale, and Lévy processes. For a left continuous, locally bounded and adapted process H the integral H · X exists, and can be calculated as a limit of ...

An alternative characterisation of the Wiener process is the so-called Lévy characterisation that says that the Wiener process is an almost surely continuous martingale with W 0 = 0 and quadratic variation [W t, W t] = t (which means that W t 2 − t is also a martingale).
Under ideal circumstances the RV consistently estimates the quadratic variation of the price process that the returns are computed from. [2] Ole E. Barndorff-Nielsen and Neil Shephard (2002), Journal of the Royal Statistical Society, Series B, 63, 2002, 253–280.
Every finite-variation semimartingale is a quadratic pure-jump semimartingale. An adapted continuous process is a quadratic pure-jump semimartingale if and only if it is of finite variation. For every semimartingale X there is a unique continuous local martingale starting at zero such that is a quadratic pure-jump semimartingale (He, Wang & Yan ...
The calculus of variations began with the work of Isaac Newton, such as with Newton's minimal resistance problem, which he formulated and solved in 1685, and later published in his Principia in 1687, [2] which was the first problem in the field to be formulated and correctly solved, [2] and was also one of the most difficult problems tackled by variational methods prior to the twentieth century.
