Is there a general (integral) solution to $du(t)= -a(t)u(t)dt +\sigma(t)dz$$du(t)= -a(t)u(t)\,dt +\sigma(t)\,dz$? Is the following $u(t)=e^{-\int_{t_0}^{t} \alpha(s)ds}u(t_0)+\int_{t_0}^{t} \sigma(v)e^{-\int_v^{t}a(s)ds}dz(v)$$u(t)=e^{-\int_{t_0}^{t} \alpha(s) \, ds}u(t_0)+\int_{t_0}^t \sigma(v) e^{-\int_v^t a(s) \, ds} \, dz(v)$ correct (which I have seen claimed without a justification)? z(t) is the standard WiennerWiener process. Is there a good reference for it?
