volatility - Continuous delta hedge formula


When we buy a call and continuously delta hedge using some implied volatility σi, what is the formula for our aggregate profit given that the actual realized volatility is σr?


Say S0=1000,σi=0.25,μ=0.10, and the call has expiry a year from now.



How does the formula look like in terms of σr? What happens if σr=0? >σi? <σi?
