Unit-magnitude scalar diffusion has Brownian law

ID: unit-magnitude-scalar-diffusion-has-brownian-law

A progressively measurable real diffusion coefficient of absolute value one gives a continuous local martingale with quadratic variation . With zero initial value, Lévy characterization of Brownian motion makes the solution standard Brownian motion. This applies to every weak solution of . The Brownian law does not imply that the solution equals the given driver or establish strong existence for a discontinuous coefficient.
