For continuous semimartingales and , their quadratic covariation has the same version under the two probability measures, up to -indistinguishability of stochastic processes. The dyadic product sums have the same limit by uniform convergence on compacts in probability under an absolutely continuous measure change. Uniqueness of a limit in probability identifies that limit with the bracket under . Semimartingale stability under an absolutely continuous measure change supplies the correct class under : a local martingale need not remain a local martingale. Taking the two processes equal proves the same statement for quadratic variation without a separate assumption.
If and a continuous semimartingale is a semimartingale under both measures, its quadratic variations agree -indistinguishably. The same squared-increment sums converge uniformly on compacts in probability under both measures: absolute continuity transfers the original convergence, and uniqueness of the limit identifies the two continuous versions. Equivalence of measures is unnecessary.
