Jump It\o-type formula with arbitrary regularity
Abstract
We establish an It\o-type formula for finite p-variation paths with jumps for arbitrary p≥ 1. The formula is stated in a fully pathwise form and separates the reduced rough integral from explicit left- and right-jump correction terms. In the c\`adl\`ag case, only the left-jump correction remains, while in the continuous case, both jump correction terms vanish and the formula recovers the corresponding continuous arbitrary-regularity change-of-variable formula. The proof is based on the reduced rough path framework and a refinement Riemann-Stieltjes convergence criterion adapted to discontinuous paths. This approach allows us to handle the higher-order Taylor expansions required for large values of p and to control the interaction between rough increments and discrete jumps. As applications, we derive It\o-type formulas for stochastic processes whose sample paths have finite p-variation, including pure-jump models and mixed fractional Brownian-jump signals. The latter class includes cases with Hurst parameter H≤ 1/3, which fall outside the regime 2≤ p<3. We also obtain chain-rule identities for nonlinear observables of c\`adl\`ag finite-p-variation solutions of random differential equations with jumps, together with a pathwise log-wealth decomposition.
