Statement

Throughout, a real-valued function on a subinterval II of the real numbers R\mathbb{R} is called continuous on II when it is continuous relative to II, both II and the codomain R\mathbb{R} carrying the metric of the real line. Let (Ω,F,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{F},P) be a probability space, let m≥1m\ge1 be a natural number, and let W=(W1,…,Wm)W=(W^{1},\dots,W^{m}) be an mm-dimensional Brownian motion on (Ω,F,P)(\Omega,\mathcal{F},P). For each component index jj, each real s>0s>0, and each continuous f:[0,s]→Rf:[0,s]\to\mathbb{R}, let ∫0sf(u) dWuj\int_0^{s}f(u)\,dW^{j}_u denote a Wiener integral of ff with respect to the standard Brownian motion WjW^{j}, that is, the It^{o} integral of (f(u))u∈(0,s](f(u))_{u\in(0,s]} with respect to the It^{o} integrator (Wj,1)(W^{j},1) of Brownian Motion is an Ito Integrator with Unit Intensity, taken with respect to the natural filtration of WjW^{j}.

1. (Measurable versions) For each jj, ss, and ff as above, some version of ∫0sf(u) dWuj\int_0^{s}f(u)\,dW^{j}_u is measurable with respect to the generated σ\sigma-algebra σ(Wtj:t≥0)\sigma(W^{j}_t:t\ge0); indeed one may choose a version measurable with respect to σ(Wuj:0≤u≤s)\sigma(W^{j}_u:0\le u\le s).

2. (Joint Gaussianity) For every choice of versions, the family consisting of all the random variables WtjW^{j}_t (1≤j≤m1\le j\le m, t≥0t\ge0) together with all the Wiener integrals ∫0sf(u) dWuj\int_0^{s}f(u)\,dW^{j}_u (over all 1≤j≤m1\le j\le m, all real s>0s>0, and all continuous f:[0,s]→Rf:[0,s]\to\mathbb{R}), indexed by the disjoint union of the set of pairs (j,t)(j,t) and the set of triples (j,s,f)(j,s,f), is jointly Gaussian, and all its members have expectation zero, the expectations being defined and finite by Square-Integrability, Moments, and Covariance Matrix of a Gaussian Random Vector.

3. (Covariances) With the covariance of square-integrable random variables (defined and finite by Square-Integrability, Moments, and Covariance Matrix of a Gaussian Random Vector), the Riemann integral (existing by claim 3 of Restricted Lebesgue Measure and Integral Toolkit on a Compact Interval), and the convention that an integral over the degenerate interval [0,0][0,0] equals 00: for all component indices i,ji,j, all reals s,t>0s,t>0, and all continuous f:[0,s]→Rf:[0,s]\to\mathbb{R} and g:[0,t]→Rg:[0,t]\to\mathbb{R},

Cov⁡(∫0sf(u) dWui, ∫0tg(u) dWuj)={∫0min⁡(s,t)f(u) g(u) du,i=j,0,i≠j,\operatorname{Cov}\Bigl(\int_0^{s}f(u)\,dW^{i}_u,\ \int_0^{t}g(u)\,dW^{j}_u\Bigr)=\begin{cases}\displaystyle\int_0^{\min(s,t)}f(u)\,g(u)\,du, & i=j,\\ 0, & i\ne j,\end{cases}

and, now allowing also t≥0t\ge0 and s′≥0s'\ge0: Cov⁡(Wti,∫0sf(u) dWuj)\operatorname{Cov}\bigl(W^{i}_t,\int_0^{s}f(u)\,dW^{j}_u\bigr) equals ∫0min⁡(s,t)f(u) du\int_0^{\min(s,t)}f(u)\,du when i=ji=j and equals 00 when i≠ji\ne j, and Cov⁡(Ws′i,Wtj)\operatorname{Cov}(W^{i}_{s'},W^{j}_t) equals min⁡(s′,t)\min(s',t) when i=ji=j and 00 when i≠ji\ne j.
