We derive conditional Gaussian type identities of the form E [ exp ⁡ ( i ∫ 0 T u t d B t ) | ∫ 0 T | u t | 2 d t ] = exp ⁡ ( − 1 2 ∫ 0 T | u t | 2 d t ) , for Brownian stochastic integrals, under conditions on the process ( u t ) t ∈ [ 0 , T ] specified using the Malliavin calculus. This applies in particular to the quadratic Brownian integral ∫ 0 t A B s d B s under the matrix condition A † A 2 = 0 , using a characterization of Yor [6] . [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Based on a new multiplication formula for discrete multiple stochastic integrals with respect to non-symmetric Bernoulli random walks, we extend the results of Nourdin et al. (2010) on the Gaussian approximation of symmetric Rademacher sequences to the setting of possibly non-identically distributed independent Bernoulli sequences. We also provide Poisson approximation results for these sequences, by following the method of Peccati (2011). Our arguments use covariance identities obtained from the Clark-Ocone representation formula in addition to those usually based on the inverse of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck operator.

We derive convex comparison inequalities for stochastic integrals of the formand, whereare adapted processes with respect to the filtration generated by a standard Brownian motion, andis an independent Brownian motion. Our method uses forward–backward stochastic integration and the Malliavin calculus, and is also applied to jump–diffusion processes. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Abstract: We propose a formula for the computation of the moments of all orders of Itô and Skorohod stochastic integrals with respect to Brownian motion, based on cumulant operators defined by the Malliavin calculus. Some characterizations of Gaussian distributions for stochastic integrals are recovered as a consequence. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
