Dual representations of Laplace transforms of Brownian excursion and generalized meanders

Probability 2019-12-30 v3

Abstract

The Laplace transform of the dd-dimensional distribution of Brownian excursion is expressed as the Laplace transform of the (d+1)(d+1)-dimensional distribution of an auxiliary Markov process, started from a σ\sigma-finite measure and with the roles of arguments and times interchanged. A similar identity holds for the Laplace transform of a generalized meander, which is expressed as the Laplace transform of the same auxiliary Markov process, with a different initial law.
