The Dambis-Dubins-Schwarz theorem states: let be a continuous local martingale with and almost surely. Set
Then is standard Brownian motion relative to and
Strict increase of the bracket is not required in the general theorem: is constant on intervals on which its bracket is constant. Continuity of is required. A nonzero initial value is handled by applying the theorem to and adding it back. If the terminal bracket is finite, the finite-lifetime extension of the Dambis-Dubins-Schwarz theorem supplies the Brownian motion up to that bracket time and, if necessary, an independent continuation on an enlarged probability space.
