Centering lemma for stochastic processes #

Any ℕ-indexed stochastic process which is adapted and integrable can be written as the sum of a
martingale and a predictable process. This result is also known as Doob's decomposition theorem.
From a process f, a filtration ℱ and a measure μ, we define two processes
martingale_part f ℱ μ and predictable_part f ℱ μ.

Any ℕ-indexed stochastic process can be written as the sum of a martingale and a predictable
process. This is the predictable process. See martingale_part for the martingale.
