Show that this processes are martingales
$begingroup$
I have to show that the following two processes are martingales
- $M_t=g(t)B_t-int_0^tg'(s)B_sds$
- $X_t=expleft(e^tB_t-int^t_0e^sB_sds-frac{e^{2t}}{4}+frac{1}{4}right)$
Where $g(t)$ is a real valued continuously differentiable function and $B_t$ is a brownian motion.
I tried the first part straight forward but without success. I guess I can not simply use Fubini here to switch expectation and integration. So I believe it has something to do with Ito. But i really don't know how to apply it here to show that 1. is a martingale.
For the second process: I know that the first two terms in the exponent are 1. with $g(t)=e^t$ so this is a martingale. I assume I also have to apply Ito here aswell, but like in 1., I'm not sure how.

For the first one you can use Fubini's theorem for conditional expectations. Alternatively, you can apply Itô's formula to $f(t,x) := g(t) cdot x$.

I tried using Fubini and I got for $u<t$:$mathbb{E}[M_t|mathcal{F}_u]=g(t)B_u-int^u_0g'(s)B_sds$. I don't see where the first $g(t)$ gets to a $g(u)$

You went wrong when you calculated the conditional expectation of the integral. Compute $mathbb{E}(B_s mid mathcal{F}_u)$ separately for $s leq u$ and $s>u$. What do you get?

I did separate it and I got $int_0^ug'(s)mathbb{E}[B_s|mathcal{F}_u]ds+int^t_ug'(s)mathbb{E}[B_s|mathcal{F}_u]$. In the first integral we have $sleq u$ and therefore, all $B_s$ are $mathcal{F}_u$ measurable, i.e. we just get $int^u_0g'(s)B_sds$. In the second integral we just get $int_u^tg'(s)mathbb{E}[B_s]ds$ which is zero since $mathbb{E}[B_s]=0$. Or am I wrong with that?

There is no "dt" in the 2nd term on the right-hand side.. it should read $langle X rangle_t$ (or, perhaps, $(dX_t)^2$ ... depending on which notation you are using).
