Abstract:
Let $X=(X_{t})_{tgeq 0}in H^{1}$ and $Y=(Y_{t})_{tgeq 0}in{mathrm{BMO}} $ be arbitrary continuous-path martingales. The paper contains the proof of the inequality egin{equation*}mathbb{E}int _{0}^{infty }iglvert dlangle X,Y angle_{t}igrvert leq sqrt{2}Vert XVert _{H^{1}}Vert YVert _{mathrm{BMO}_{2}},end{equation*} and the constant $sqrt{2}$ is shown to be the best possible. The proof rests on the construction of a certain special function, enjoying appropriate size and concavity conditions.
