The stochastic exponential $${Z_t= {\rm exp}\{M_t-M_0-(1/2)\langle M,M\rangle_t\}}$$ of a continuous local martingale M is itself a continuous local martingale. We give a necessary and sufficient condition for the process Z to be a true martingale in the case where $${M_t=\int_0^t b(Y_u)\,dW_u}$$ and Y is a one-dimensional diffusion driven by a Brownian motion W. Furthermore, we provide a necessary and sufficient condition for Z to be a uniformly integrable martingale in the same setting. These…
