Change of Time: Definition and Examples  Change of Time-change time from t to a non- negative process with non-decreasing sample paths  Example1 (Subordinator): X(t) and T(t)>0 are some processes, then X(T(t)) is subordinated to X(t); T(t) is change of time  Example 2 (Time-Changed Brownian Motion): M(t)=B(T(t)), B(t)-Brownian motion  Example 3 (Standard Stochastic Volatility Model (SVM) ): M(t)=\int_0^t\sigma(s)dB(s), T(t)=[M(t)]=\int_0^t\sigma^2(s)ds. T(t)=[M(t)]=\int_0^t\sigma^2(s)ds.

Interpretation of CT. I.  If M(t) is fair game process (another name-martingale)  Then M(t)=B(T(t)) (Dambis-Dubins- Schwartz Theorem)  Time-change is the quadratic variation process [M(t)]  Then M(t) can be written as a SVM process (martingale representation theorem, Doob (1953))

Interpretation of CT. II.  This implies that time-changed BMs are canonical in continuous sample path price processes and SVMs are special cases of this class  A consequence of the fact that for continuous sample path time changed BM, [M(t)]=T(t) is that in the SVM case [M(t)]=T(t) is that in the SVM case [M(t)]=\int_0^t\sigma^2(s)ds. [M(t)]=\int_0^t\sigma^2(s)ds.

Change of Time: Short History. I.  Bochner (1949) (‘Diffusion Equation and Stochastic Process’, Proc. N.A.S. USA, v. 35)-introduced the notion of change of time (CT) (time-changed Brownian motion)  Bochner (1955) (‘Harmonic Analysis and the Theory of Probability’, UCLA Press, 176)-further development of CT  Feller (1966) (‘An Introduction to Probability Theory’, vol. II, NY: Wiley)-introduced subordinated processes X(T(t)) with Markov process X(t) and T(t) as a process with independent increments (i.e., Poisson process); T(t) was called randomized operational time

Change of Time: Short History. II.  Clark (1973) (‘A Subordinated Stochastic Process Model with Fixed Variance for Speculative Prices’, Econometrica, 41, )-introduced Bochner’s (1949) time-changed Brownian motion into financial economics: he wrote down a model for the log-price M as M(t)=B(T(t)), where B(t) is Brownian motion, T(t) is time-change (B and T are independent)  Johnson (1979) (‘Option Pricing When the Variance Rate is Changing’, working paper, UCLA)-introduced time-changed SVM in continuous time  Johnson & Shanno (1987) (‘Option Pricing When the Variance is Changing’, J. of Finan. & Quantit. Analysis, 22, )-studied the pricing of options using time- changing SVM

Change of Time: Short History. III.  Ikeda & Watanabe (1981) (‘SDEs and Diffusion Processes’, North-Holland Publ. Co)-introduced and studied CTM for the solution of SDEs  Carr, Geman, Madan & Yor (2003) (‘SV for Levy Processes’, mathematical Finance, vol.13)-used subordinated processes to construct SV for Levy Processes (T(t)- business time)

Time-Changed Models and SVMs  The probability literature has demonstrated that SVMs and their time-changed BM relatives and time-changed models are fundamentals  Shephard (2005): Stochastic Volatility, working paper, University of Oxford  Shephard (2005): Stochastic Volatility: Selected Readings, Oxford, Oxford University Press
