Yo estaba derivando la solución a la ecuación diferencial estocástica $$dX_t = \mu X_tdt + \sigma X_tdB_t$$ where $B_t$ is a brownian motion. After finding $$X_t = x_0\exp((\mu - \frac{\sigma^2}{2})t + \mu B_t)$$ I wanted to calculate the expectation of $X_t$. However I think I'm not quite getting it. I thought that I'd just calculate $$E(x_0\exp((\mu - \frac{\sigma^2}{2})t + \mu B_t) = x_0\exp((\mu - \frac{\sigma^2}{2})t)E(\exp(\mu B_t))$$ but the book I'm using gives as answer $E(X_t) = x_0\exp(\mu t)$. I found this quite surprising as I don't quite see how $\sigma$ could just disappear. After reading Wikipedia I see that the result could be either $E(X_t) = x_0\exp((\mu + \frac{\sigma^2}{2})t)$ or $E(X_t) = x_0\exp(\mu t)$, dependiendo de si se utiliza el Itô interpretación o la Stratanovich interpretación.
Desde que el libro, yo uso solo considera la Itô formulación estocástica de integración estoy interesado en el último resultado. Pero, ¿cómo puedo obtener de esto? ¿Me acaba de fallar en el cálculo de $E(\exp(\mu B_t))$? Gracias de antemano.
