Abstract
In this paper we introduce the notion of fractional martingale as the fractional derivative of order α of a continuous local martingale, where α∈(−½, ½), and we show that it has a nonzero finite variation of order 2/(1+2α), under some integrability assumptions on the quadratic variation of the local martingale. As an application we establish an extension of Lévy’s characterization theorem for the fractional Brownian motion.
