Semimartingale invariance under equivalent measures

ID: semimartingale-invariance-under-equivalent-measures

On a fixed finite horizon, equivalent probability measures have the same semimartingales. For a strictly positive continuous Radon-Nikodym density martingale and a continuous local martingale under the original measure, is a local martingale under the new one, by the Girsanov theorem. Thus the finite-variation part of a continuous semimartingale decomposition changes by the opposite covariation correction.
