Our techniques involve elementary stochastic calculus, as well as the Doob-Meyer decomposition of continuous submartingales. These results can be used to obtain an explicit expression of the constants appearing in the Burkholder-Davis-Gundy inequalities. A connection with some balayage formulae is also established.7 pagesProbability60G15, 60G44Burkholder's submartingales from a stochastic calculus perspectivetext
