The principal component function λ<br />
∫<br />
σ(s, t) =<br />
λ(s, w)λ(t, w) dw + ψ(s, t)<br />
Let’s assume observations defined over [0, T ].<br />
But λ need not vary over [0, T ] as a function of w. In fact,<br />
we require that<br />
λ(s, w) = 0, w > s<br />
corresponding to the lower triangular matrix L ′ in the<br />
Choleski decomposition, Σ = L ′ L.
