For a three-dimensional Bessel process started at one, R stays strictly positive and satisfies dR=dW+R−1dt. The Itô formula makes its reciprocal a local martingale, but E[Rt−1​]=2Φ(1/t​)−1<1 for t>0. Thus the reciprocal is a strict local martingale. It can deflate the market with constant bank account and stock price R without yielding a true pricing density for the bank account.
