First take a bounded elementary predictable process , with each bounded and -measurable and with finite time support. The Itô integral is the corresponding finite sum . Applying part (a) term by term gives
Such elementary predictable processes are dense among predictable processes in . The Itô isometry makes the left functional continuous, with bound
The Cauchy-Schwarz inequality makes the right functional continuous, with bound . Approximation therefore proves the same identity for every allowed predictable . The integral over the infinite time interval is the limit of its finite-horizon Itô integrals.
