Transformation of SDE in a two asset situation.


n the formula ( Change of Brownian motion) the $\sigma$ and $dW$ are columns and the $\sigma dW~\ $are scalar products. We intend to apply the result ( Change of Brownian motion) to a situation of two assets given by one dimensional correlated diffusion terms.MATHMATH where the expression $dB_{Y,t}^{X}$ stands for $Y$'s Brownian motion with respect to $X$ taken as numeraire. We assume thatMATH for some number MATH. We are seeking a matrix MATHsuch thatMATH where MATH is a column of independent standard Brownian motions.

Observe that the Brownian motions $B$ given byMATH are standard and satisfy the conditionMATH Hence, it is enough to set MATH We write MATHMATH The formula ( Change of Brownian motion) takes the formMATH Therefore, we write SDE for $Y_{t}$ in the $Y$-measure as followsMATHMATH where the Brownian motions MATH are standard under the measure of numeraire $Y$ and satisfy the relationshipMATH
