Hello everyone.

I have a question about a standard Brownian motion, W(t). Is it
possible to express dW? Because I would like to observe the small
change of W over time and compare my simulation.

I think that dW/dt is a distribution. If phi is a smooth enough function (Borel measurable should be enough) then

int phi dW := W(phi)

is a gaussian random variable who mean is zero and variance is

int |phi(t)|^2 dt.
