Abstract

We give a unified characterization of π‘ž-optimal martingale measures for π‘ž ∈ [0, ∞) in an incomplete market model, where the dynamics of asset prices are described by a continuous semimartingale. According to this characterization the variance-optimal, the minimal entropy and the minimal martingale measures appear as the special cases π‘ž = 2, π‘ž = 1 and π‘ž = 0 respectively. Under assumption that the Reverse HΓΆlder condition is satisfied, the continuity (in 𝐿1 and in entropy) of densities of π‘ž-optimal martingale measures with respect to π‘ž is proved.
