The relation between and is the linear equation with . Multiplication by the deterministic integrating factor and the Itô product rule give
Hence
The second equality follows by semimartingale integration by parts. It expresses as an explicit function of the continuous path of , using only an ordinary time integral. This inversion holds before changing measure; is already a continuous semimartingale under the original measure.
