The integrator is an $H$-cylindrical Brownian motion. Our approach is based on a two-sided $L^p$-decoupling inequality for UMD spaces due to Garling, which is combined with the theory of stochastic integration of $\mathcal{L}(H,E)$-valued functions introduced recently by two of the authors. We obtain various characterizations of the stochastic integral and prove versions of the Itô isometry, the Burkholder--Davis--Gundy inequalities, and the representation theorem for Brownian martingales.Published at http://dx.doi.org/10.1214/009117906000001006 in the Annals of Probability (http://www.imstat.org/aop/) by the Institute of Mathematical Statistics (http://www.imstat.org)ProbabilityFunctional Analysis60H05 (Primary); 28C20, 60B11 (Secondary)text
