(a) What does it mean to say that a stochastic process is a Brownian motion? Show that, if (Wt)t⩾0 is a continuous Gaussian process such that E(Wt)=0 and E(WsWt)=s for all 0⩽s⩽t, then (Wt)t⩾0 is a Brownian motion.
For the rest of the question, let (Wt)t⩾0 be a Brownian motion.
(b) Let W0=0 and Wt=tW1/t for t>0. Show that (Wt)t⩾0 is a Brownian motion. [You may use without proof the Brownian strong law of large numbers: Wt/t→0 almost surely as t→∞.]
for some fixed g and fixed 0<t1<…<tn=T, where C[0,T] is the space of continuous functions on [0,T]. [If you use a general theorem from the lectures, you should prove it.]
