Itô isometry for process that is not starting at 0?

145 Views Asked by At

Itô isometry states that $$ \int_0^t {X_sdW_s} \sim \mathcal{N}\left(0, \int_0^t {X_s^2ds}\right) $$ and my question is what is distribution of the process $I_T = \int_t^T {X_sdW_s}$? Is it maybe $$ \int_t^T {X_sdW_s} \sim \mathcal{N}\left(0,\int_t^T {X_s^2ds} \right)? $$

$$ \int_t^T X_s dW_s = \int_0^T X_s dW_s - \int_0^t X_s dW_s $$ and you know the distributions of them both, so the end result is clearly normal with zero mean. Can you figure out the variance?
