For every $h\in L^2[0,1]$, the continuous linear functional induced by the inner product givesThis is a normal random variable because it is a linear combination of independent normal random variables. Hence the law of $U$ is a Gaussian measure. Its mean is zero, and independence together with $\mathrm{Var}({\xi }_i)=1/2$ givesThus its covariance operator of a Gaussian measure is
