Abstract

For one-dimensional semimartingales, the Itô formula can be extended from C2-functions to C1-functions with a locally absolutely continuous derivative. We propose a new, different proof of this result, which is simple, straightforward and quite elementary, avoiding in particular the extensive theory of local times for semimartingales.
