Proof of Brownian Motion: X(a^2t)/a

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

The discussion focuses on proving that the expression \(\frac{X(a^2t)}{a}\) represents a Brownian motion. The key insight is that the proof involves substituting \((t-s)\) with \(a^2(t-s)\) and \(s\) with \(a^2s\), followed by dividing the entire expression by \(a\). This transformation confirms that the modified process retains the properties of Brownian motion.

Yes, I forgot to mention that!
