The Brownian motion in the Dambis-Dubins-Schwarz theorem representation need not be independent of the bracket clock. Let be standard Brownian motion and take
The Gaussian fourth moment and the Brownian covariance kernel give for , and hence
If the entire driving Brownian motion were independent of the clock , conditioning on would give , contradicting this identity. Gaussian increments in bracket time therefore do not justify an independent random-clock model.
