Addition law for square-root branching diffusions ($Z+Z^{\prime }\text{ starts at }z+z^{\prime }$)

For solutions with independent Brownian drivers in a common filtration, combine the drivers with weights $\sqrt{Z/(Z+Z^{\prime })}$ and $\sqrt{Z^{\prime }/(Z+Z^{\prime })}$ where the sum is positive. At zero use one original driver. The resulting continuous local martingale has bracket $t$ and is Brownian motion by the Lévy characterization of Brownian motion. Multiplying its differential by $\sqrt{Z+Z^{\prime }}$ gives exactly the sum of the original stochastic differentials.
