Paley–Wiener integral

In mathematics, the Paley–Wiener integral is a simple stochastic integral. When applied to classical Wiener space, it is less general than the Itō integral, but the two agree when they are both defined.

The integral is named after its discoverers, Raymond Paley and Norbert Wiener.

Definition

Let i : H  E be an abstract Wiener space with abstract Wiener measure γ on E. Let j : E  H be the adjoint of i. (We have abused notation slightly: strictly speaking, j : E  H, but since H is a Hilbert space, it is isometrically isomorphic to its dual space H, by the Riesz representation theorem.)

It can be shown that j is an injective function and has dense image in H. Furthermore, it can be shown that every linear functional f  E is also square-integrable: in fact,

This defines a natural linear map from j(E) to L2(E, γ; R), under which j(f)  j(E)  H goes to the equivalence class [f] of f in L2(E, γ; R). This is well-defined since j is injective. This map is an isometry, so it is continuous.

However, since a continuous linear map between Banach spaces such as H and L2(E, γ; R) is uniquely determined by its values on any dense subspace of its domain, there is a unique continuous linear extension I : H  L2(E, γ; R) of the above natural map j(E)  L2(E, γ; R) to the whole of H.

This isometry I : H  L2(E, γ; R) is known as the Paley–Wiener map. I(h), also denoted <h, >, is a function on E and is known as the Paley–Wiener integral (with respect to h  H).

It is important to note that the Paley–Wiener integral for a particular element h  H is a function on E. The notation <h, x> does not really denote an inner product (since h and x belong to two different spaces), but is a convenient abuse of notation in view of the Cameron–Martin theorem. For this reason, many authors prefer to write <h, >(x) or I(h)(x) rather than using the more compact but potentially confusing <h, x> notation.

gollark: Novel code generation from a natural language description is actually possible *now*, with generic language models finetuned on code a lot, but really bad.
gollark: I mean, if they can actually do that, more power to them.
gollark: Why even install Windows 11? It isn't exactly better.
gollark: I think you can get tick *time* over the last few whatever by using `rate` on `mc_server_tick_seconds`.
gollark: No idea.
