Doob decomposition / stopping time

127 Views Asked by At

Let $\tau$ be a stopping time, and let $X=M-A$ be the doob-decomposition of the super martingale $X$. Proof that the Doob decomposition of $X^{\tau}$ is $X^{\tau}=M^{\tau}-A^{\tau}$.

So I know that a) the Doob decomposition is unqiue b) the stopped process $X^{\tau}$ is again a supermartingale (Doob optional sampling).

can I use these information to prove that the decomposition is indeed the one above?
