Stochastic integration with respect to cylindrical Lévy processes in Hilbert spaces

Abstract: In this work, we present a comprehensive theory of stochastic integration with respect to arbitrary cylindrical L\'evy processes in Hilbert spaces. Since cylindrical L\'evy processes do not enjoy a semi-martingale decomposition, our approach relies on an alternative approach to stochastic integration by decoupled tangent sequences. The space of deterministic integrands is identified as a modular space described in terms of the characteristics of the cylindrical L\'evy process. The space of random integrands is described as the space of predictable processes whose trajectories are in the space of deterministic integrands almost surely. The derived space of random integrands is verified as the largest space of potential integrands, based on a classical definition of stochastic integrability. We apply the introduced theory of stochastic integration to establish a dominated convergence theorem.
