Example: integral of t_dW.


he goal of this section is to calculate distribution of MATH . By the property ( Ito isometry ) we have MATH The integral MATH is a limit of a sum of normal variables. Each of the variables has zero mean. Hence, the result is a normal variable with zero mean. We conclude,

MATH (Int t dW)
for some standard normal variable $\xi$ .
