On s-additive robust representation of convex risk measures for unbounded financial positions in the presence of uncertainty about the market model



4 Strong robust representation of convex risk measures by prob-

ability measures

We want to look for conditions which induce a strong robust representation of ρ by probability measures in the
sense that

ρ(X) = PmMax (-EP [X] - αρ(P))

holds for any X X. The considerations are reduced to a Stonean vector lattice X being stable w.r.t. countable
convex combinations of antitone sequences of financial positions. In this case the following result gives a complete
answer to the problem of strong robust representations.

Theorem 4.1 Let X be a Stonean vector lattice and let us assume that for every antitone sequence (Xn)n in
∞∞

X with Xn 0 and each sequence (λn)n in [0,1] with ∑ λn = 1 there is some pointwise limit ɪɪ λnXn of
n=1                                       n=1

m

(   λnXn)m belonging to X. Then the following statements are equivalent:

n=1

.1 ρ(X) = max (-EP [X] - αρ (P)) holds for every X X.

.2 ρ(Xn) ρ(x) for Xn 7 X.

.3 lim ρ((X — n) + ) = ρ(0) hold for arbitrary nonnegative X X,λ> 0, and ρ(Xn) ρ(X) for any isotone
n→∞

sequence (Xn)n of bounded positions from X with Xn / X, X being bounded.

In any of these cases every linear form from the domain of βρ is representable by a probability measure. Moreover,
for any Stonean vector lattice
L X which contains C as well as generates the same σ-algebra as X and induces

the set system S consisting of all sets T Xn-1 ([xn , ∞[) (Xn L Xb nonnegative, xn > 0) any of the statements
n=1

.1 - .3 is implied by

.4 lim ρ((X — n) + ) = ρ(0) hold for arbitrary nonnegative X X,λ> 0, and inf   p(λZ) ρ(λ) for

n→∞                                                                  1An ZX

λ> 0 whenever (1An)n is an isotone sequence of indicator mappings of subsets An S with (J An = Ω.

We have even equivalence of the statements .1 - .4 if the indicator mappings 1A (A S) belong to X.

The proof may be found in section 8.

For bounded one-period positions, Theorem 4.1 enables us to give an equivalent characterization of convex risk
measures that admit strong robust representations by probability measures.

Corollary 4.2 Let F denote some σ-algebra on Ω, and let X consist of all bounded F—measurable real-valued
mappings. Then the following statements are equivalent:

.1 ρ(X) = max (—EP [X] — αρ (P)) holds for every X X.
