Let X and Y be Ito processes with dX$_{s}$ = $\phi$$_{s}$dB$_{s}$ ＋ $\psi$$_{s}$ds and dY$_{s}$ = (equation omitted)dB$_{s}$ ＋ ξ$_{s}$ds. Burkholder obtained a sharp bound on the distribution of the maximal function of Y under the assumption that │Y$_{0}$│$\leq$│X$_{0}$│,│ζ│$\leq$│$\phi$│, │ξ│$\leq$│$\psi$│ and that X is a nonnegative local submartingale. In this paper we consider a wider class of Ito processes, replace the assumption │ξ│$\leq$│$\psi$│ by a more general one │ξ│$\leq$$\alpha$ │$\psi$│ , where a $\geq$ 0 is a constant, and get a weak-type inequality between X and the maximal function of Y. This inequality, being sharp for all a $\geq$ 0, extends the work by Burkholder.der.urkholder.der.

Let $f=(f_n)$ be a nonnegative submartingale such that ${\parallel}f{\parallel}{\infty}{\leq}1\;and\;g=(g_n)$ be a martingale, adapted to the same filtration, satisfying $${\mid}d_{gn}{\mid}{\leq}{\mid}df_n{\mid},\;n=0,\;1,\;2,\;....$$ The paper contains the proof of the sharp inequality $$\limits^{sup}_ n\;\mathbb{E}{\Phi}({\mid}g_n{\mid}){\leq}{\Phi}(1)$$ for a class of convex increasing functions ${\Phi}\;on\;[0,\;{\infty}]$, satisfying certain growth condition. As an application, we show a continuous-time version for stochastic integrals and a related estimate for smooth functions on Euclidean domain.
