Statement

Consider a linear-Gaussian state-observation model on [0,T][0,T], with notation and fixed versions as there. Let t(0,T]t\in(0,T], let k1k\ge1 be a natural number, and let ff assign to each r[0,t]r\in[0,t] a real k×l~k\times\tilde l matrix f(r)f(r) with continuous entries. Define, for 1ik1\le i\le k (fixed versions),

(0tf(r)dur)i:=0t(f(r)E~(r)Xr)idr+j=1m0t(f(r)ε~(r))ijdWrj,\Bigl(\int_0^tf(r)\,du_r\Bigr)^{i}:=\int_0^t\bigl(f(r)\tilde E(r)X_r\bigr)^{i}\,dr+\sum_{j'=1}^{m}\int_0^t\bigl(f(r)\tilde\varepsilon(r)\bigr)_{ij'}\,dW^{j'}_r ,

with the mean-square Riemann integral (the integrand family is mean-square continuous by claims 1-2 of Basic Properties of the Mean-Square Riemann Integral, and the integral exists by Existence and Uniqueness of the Mean-Square Riemann Integral for Mean-Square Continuous Families) and Wiener integrals; for the degenerate time we set 00f(r)dur:=0\int_0^0f(r)\,du_r:=0 (the zero tuple), consistently with the conventions of Mean-Square Riemann Integral of a Family of Random Variables.

1. (Riemann-Stieltjes approximation) For n1n\ge1 put xp=pt/nx_p=pt/n (0pn0\le p\le n). Then, componentwise, with 2\lVert\cdot\rVert_2 the mean-square norm of Square-Integrable Random Variables and the Mean-Square Inner Product,

p=1n(f(xp1)(uxpuxp1))i(0tf(r)dur)i20(n),\Bigl\lVert\sum_{p=1}^{n}\Bigl(f(x_{p-1})\bigl(u_{x_p}-u_{x_{p-1}}\bigr)\Bigr)^{i}-\Bigl(\int_0^tf(r)\,du_r\Bigr)^{i}\Bigr\rVert_{2}\longrightarrow0\qquad(n\to\infty),

the sums being formed componentwise from the tuples uxpu_{x_p}.

2. (Determination by the observations) Each component of 0tf(r)dur\int_0^tf(r)\,du_r is almost surely equal to a Gt\mathcal{G}_t-measurable square-integrable random variable, and is a mean-square limit of finite linear combinations of the values urju^{j}_r (1jl~1\le j\le\tilde l, 0rt0\le r\le t).
