2226 CHAPTER 64. WIENER PROCESSES
Thus, this has shown that for all A ∈Fs,∫A
E((W (t) ,h)2 |Fs
)dP−
∫A(W (s) ,h)2 dP
= P(A)(t− s)(Qh,h) =∫
A(t− s)(Qh,h)dP
and since A ∈Fs is arbitrary, this proves
E((W (t) ,h)2− t (Qh,h) |Fs
)= (W (s) ,h)2− s(Qh,h)
This proves one half of the theorem.Next suppose both {W (t)} and
{(W (t) ,h)2− t (Qh,h)
}are martingales for any h∈H.
It follows that both {(W (t) ,h)} and{(W (t) ,h)2− t (Qh,h)
}are martingales also. There-
fore, by Levy’s theorem, Theorem 63.8.5, {(W (t) ,h)} is a Wiener process with the prop-erty that its variance at t equals (Qh,h) t instead of t. Thus the time increments are normaland independent. I need to verify that {W (t)} is a Q Wiener process. One of the thingswhich needs to be shown is that
E ((W (t)−W (s) ,h1)(W (t)−W (s) ,h2)) = (Qh1,h2)(t− s) . (64.6.41)
I have just shownE((W (t)−W (s) ,h)2
)= (t− s)(Qh,h) (64.6.42)
which follows from Levy’s theorem which concludes {(W (t) ,h)} is a Wiener process.Therefore,
E ((W (t)−W (s) ,h1 +h2)(W (t)−W (s) ,h2 +h1))
= (Q(h1 +h2) ,(h1 +h2))(t− s)
Now using 64.6.42, it follows from this that
E ((W (t)−W (s) ,h1)(W (t)−W (s) ,h2)) = (Qh1,h2)(t− s)
which shows 64.6.41. This completes the proof.
