Work in the usual joint natural filtration of and , in which both are Brownian motions. The integrand is , as printed in the PDF. It is predictable and bounded, so is a zero-starting continuous local martingale. The quadratic variation of a stochastic integral givesIf the sign is defined to be zero at zero, the final equality still holds: Tonelli's theorem gives . Thus the Brownian zero set has zero Lebesgue time on every compact interval. The Lévy characterization of Brownian motion proves that is standard Brownian motion. This is the Brownian sign transform.
