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.
