dc.descriptionUnder the continuous assumption on the generator $g$, Briand et al. [Electron. Comm. Probab. 5 (2000) 101--117] showed some connections between $g$ and the conditional $g$-expectation $({\mathcal{E}}_g[\cdot|{\mathcal{F}}_t])_{t\in[0,T]}$ and Rosazza Gianin [Insurance: Math. Econ. 39 (2006) 19--34] showed some connections between $g$ and the corresponding dynamic risk measure $(ρ^g_t)_{t\in[0,T]}$. In this paper we prove that, without the additional continuous assumption on $g$, a $g$-expectation ${\mathcal{E}}_g$ satisfies translation invariance if and only if $g$ is independent of $y$, and ${\mathcal{E}}_g$ satisfies convexity (resp. subadditivity) if and only if $g$ is independent of $y$ and $g$ is convex (resp. subadditive) with respect to $z$. By these conclusions we deduce that the static risk measure $ρ^g$ induced by a $g$-expectation ${\mathcal{E}}_g$ is a convex (resp. coherent) risk measure if and only if $g$ is independent of $y$ and $g$ is convex (resp. sublinear) with respect to $z$. Our results extend the results in Briand et al. [Electron. Comm. Probab. 5 (2000) 101--117] and Rosazza Gianin [Insurance: Math. Econ. 39 (2006) 19--34] on these subjects.
