Discrete Bismut formula: Conditional integration by parts and a representation for delta hedging process

Abstract

The paper gives discrete conditional integration by parts formula using a Malliavin calculus approach in discrete-time setting. Then the discrete Bismut formula is introduced for asymmetric random walk model and asymmetric exponential process. In particular, a new formula for delta hedging process is obtained as an extension of the Malliavin derivative representation of the delta where the conditional integration by parts formula plays a role in the proof.
