 Solution

Apply Itô formula to $Z_t^{(A)}=\exp (A{X}_t-A^{2}t/2)$. Its semimartingale decomposition isThe second term is a continuous finite-variation process. Since $Z^{(A)}$ is assumed to be a local martingale, uniqueness of the semimartingale decomposition makes this term identically zero. Both $A$ and $Z^{(A)}$ are nonzero, so the quadratic variation of $X$ is $[X{]}_t=t$.

The Lévy characterization of Brownian motion now says that $X_t-X_0$ is a Brownian motion. Consequentlyis a constant multiple of an exponential Brownian martingale. It is therefore a true martingale for every $a\in \mathbb{R}$.
