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



continuous real-valued mappings on SL1+,. The inverse mapping Φ 1 : Φ(L(Ω,F,P)) → L(Ω,F,P) may be

used to define the convex risk measure ρ := ρ◦ Φ 1 on X := Φ(L(Ω,F,P)) w.r.t. to the identity π on R. Notice
that Φ(
R) consists of all constant real-valued mappings on SL1+ .

Furthermore let F be the linear span of the Dirac measures δ<g> (< g >∈ SL1+ ). For any ν ∈ F there is
some < 
g >∈ L1(Ω, F, P) such that R Φ(< X >) dν = R Xg dP holds for every < X >∈ L(Ω,F, P), and
∣∣ν∣∣f := sup{∣ R Φ(< X >) dν∣ ∣ sup ∣Φ(< X >)(< g >)∣ ≤ 1} = Il g > H1. Here ∣∣∙∣∣1 denotes the Li—norm.

Conversely, for each < g > from L1(Ω, F, P) with arbitrary representation < g >=    λi < gi > (r ∈ N, λi R,

i=1
r

< gi >∈ SL1+ ; i = 1,...,r), we may define ν := P λiδ<gi> F which satisfies ʃ Φ(< X >) dν = ʃ Xg dP for
i=1

every < X >∈ L∞(Ω,F,P). Therefore F is complete w.r.t. the seminorm ∣∣ ∙ ∣f, and in order to apply Theorem
2.2 we have to show that the conditions (2.1), (2.2) are fulfilled for the sets
Ar := ρ-1(] — ∞, 0]) ∩ Br and
~ . . . . . . . . .

Br := {Φ(< X >) ∈ X ∣ sup   ∣Φ(< X >)(< g >)∣ ≤ r} (r > 0).

<g>SL1+

For this purpose fix r > 0. Since L(Ω, F, P) represents the norm dual of L1(Ω, F, P), the application of the
Banach-Alaoglu theorem yields that Φ
-1(Br) is σ(L(Ω, F, P), L1(Ω, F, P))—compact. This in turn implies by
construction that B
r is compact w.r.t. the topology σ (X, F) of pointwise convergence.

Moreover, by definition of Φ, the mapping φ : X → L1(Ω, F, P), Φ(< X >) →< X >, is injective, and continuous
w.r.t. σ(
X, F) and the weak topology on L1(Ω, F, P). Since the closure cl(Ar) w.r.t. σ(X, F) is even compact,
the restriction ^∣cl(A
r) : cl(Ar) → φ(d(Ar)) is a homeomorphism w.r.t. the associated relative topologies. In
particular
φ(d(Ar)) is the weak closure of φ(Ar), and hence, by Eberlein-Smulian theorem, every element is the
limit point of a sequence in
φ(Ar) w.r.t. the weak topology. Therefore each point from Cl(Ar) is the pointwise
limit of a sequence in A
r.

Now in view of Proposition 1.4 the relationships .1 ⇒ .2 ⇔ .3 are clear. The implication .3 ⇒ .1 follows from
Theorem 2.2 by the following argument. Let (X
n)n be a sequence in L(Ω, F, P) and let X ∈ L(Ω, F, P) such
that (Φ(< X
n >)n is uniformly bounded and converges pointwise to Φ(< X >). We may find a subsequence
(X
i(n))n with lim inf ρ(Xn) = lim ρ(Xi(n)). Since the P —essential sup norm on L(Ω, F, P) coincides with
n→∞        n→∞

the operator norm w.r.t. ∣∣ ∙ ∣∣1, the sequence (Xn)n is P —essentially bounded. Therefore Komlos’ subsequence
theorem (cf. [7], Lemma 1.69) guarantees a sequence (Y
n)n of convex combinations Yn from {Xi(m) | m ≥ n}
which converges P —a.s. pointwise to X and satisfies liminf ρ(X
n) ≥ liminf ρ(Yn).                             H

the main results of the paper. In the following ρ denotes a convex risk measure w.r.t. π associated with the
