Abstract
Given a stochastic process adapted to an increasing family of right-continuous σ-algebras, it is often useful for many purposes to enlarge the a-algebras. In the present paper we shall consider enlargements which involve embedding the process in a larger probability space. The first question investigated is what kinds of enlargements it might be useful to consider. To study stopping times, the least requirement needed to have a complete theory is that convergent sequences of stopping times converge to a function which is also a stopping time, and for this it is necessary to make the enlargement right continuous.Keywords
