abstract
we consider the dual problem of portfolio optimization problems in markets with/without
transaction costs, especially the property of optimal dual processes which produce the unique
dual optimizer (solution) to the dual problem.
even in an incomplete semimartingale market, in general, the unique optimal dual process
is not a local martingale but a supermartingale. however, if the stock price is a continuous
semimartingale, then the optimal dual process is a local martingale. this result can be
extended to the case with bounded random endowment. precisely, the countable additive
part of the dual optimizer obtained by cvitani_c, schachermayer, wang in 2001 can be attained
by a local martingale by , which is a supermartingale deator de_ned by kramkov and
schachermayer in 1999, when the underlying _ltration is generated by brownian motion.
then we discuss such problem in markets with transaction costs, where the stock price
process is continuous. under suffcient conditions, all optimal dual processes (may not be
unique) are local martingales. then, we consider the convergence of optimal dual processes
and shadow price processes, after having acquired static stability of the utility maximization
problem.
