The intersection exponents for planar Brownian motion measure the exponential decay of probabilities of nonintersection of paths. We study the intersection exponent $\xi(\lambda_1,\lambda_2)$ for Brownian motion restricted to a half plane which by conformal invariance is the same as Brownian…

We study the maximum of a Brownian motion with a parabolic drift; this is a random variable that often occurs as a limit of the maximum of discrete processes whose expectations have a maximum at an interior point. We give…

This corrects the scaling of (2.9) in EJP volume 16 paper 84 (2011).

Let $B$ be a Brownian motion in $R^d$, $d=2,3$. A time $t\in [0,1]$ is called a cut time for $B[0,1]$ if $B[0,t) \cap B(t,1] = \emptyset$. We show that the Hausdorff dimension of the set of cut times equals $1…

Let $M$ be a smooth, compact, connected Riemannian manifold of dimension $d>2$ and without boundary. Denote by $T(x,r)$ the hitting time of the ball of radius $r$ centered at $x$ by Brownian motion on $M$. Then, $C_r(M)=\sup_{x \in M} T(x,r)$…

Consider the domain lying outside a horn. We determine asymptotics of the logarithm of the chance that Brownian motion in the domain has a large exit place. For a certain class of horns, the behavior is given explicitly in terms…

For Brownian motion in an unbounded domain we study the influence of the "far away" behavior of the domain on the probability that the modulus of the Brownian motion is large when it exits the domain. Roughly speaking, if the…

It was shown in Groeneboom (1983) that the least concave majorant of one-sided Brownian motion without drift can be characterized by a jump process with independent increments, which is the inverse of the process of slopes of the least concave…
