Pre-Brownian motion relative to a filtration #
Mathlib's ProbabilityTheory.IsPreBrownianReal prescribes only the finite-dimensional laws of
W. A martingale statement needs a filtration, and the law of W alone does not say how W
interacts with it: TauCeti.Probability.IsFilteredPreBrownianReal ℱ W P adds that W is adapted
to ℱ and that every increment W_t - W_s, s ≤ t, is independent of ℱ_s. A pre-Brownian
motion is a pre-Brownian motion relative to its own natural filtration
(ProbabilityTheory.IsPreBrownianReal.isFilteredPreBrownianReal_natural). Conversely, an adapted
process started at 0 whose increments W_t - W_s have law N(0, t - s) and are independent of
ℱ_s is a pre-Brownian motion relative to ℱ
(MeasureTheory.Adapted.isFilteredPreBrownianReal); this is how a change of measure is shown to
produce a new Brownian motion.

W is a pre-Brownian motion relative to the filtration ℱ under P: its
finite-dimensional laws are those of Brownian motion, it is adapted to ℱ, and for s ≤ t the
increment W t - W s is independent of ℱ s.

Instances For
A Brownian value is independent of every random variable known at time zero.
Fixed-time almost-sure equality preserves the filtered pre-Brownian property, provided the replacement is adapted to the same filtration. Adaptedness is not inferred from a.e. equality on a raw filtration.
A pre-Brownian motion is a pre-Brownian motion relative to its natural filtration: by the weak
Markov property ProbabilityTheory.IsPreBrownianReal.indepFun_shift, the increments after time
s are independent of (B u, u ≤ s).
For s ≤ t, the increment B t - B s of a pre-Brownian motion has law N(0, t - s).
An adapted process that starts at 0 and whose increments X t - X s, s ≤ t, have law
N(0, t - s) and are independent of ℱ s is a pre-Brownian motion relative to ℱ.
