Abstract
We discuss a d-dimensional version (for làdlàg optional processes) of a duality result by Meyer (1976) between {bounded} càdlàg adapted processes and random measures. We show that it allows to establish, in a very natural way, a dual representation for the set of initial endowments which allow to super-hedge a given American claim in a continuous time model with proportional transaction costs. It generalizes a previous result of Bouchard and Temam (2005) who considered a discrete time setting. It also completes the very recent work of Denis, De Vallière and Kabanov (2008) who studied càdlàg American claims and used a completely different approach.
