For the one-dimensional Brownian motion $B=(B_t)_{t\ge 0}$, started at $x>0$, and the first hitting time $\tau=\inf\{t\ge 0:B_t=0\}$, we find the probability density of $B_{u\tau}$ for a $u\in(0,1)$, i.e. of the Brownian motion on its way…

The subject of this paper is to prove a functional weak invariance principle for the local time of a process generated by a Gibbs-Markov map. More precisely, let $\left(X,\mathcal{B},m,T,\alpha\right)$ is a mixing, probability preserving…

The classical Ray-Knight theorems for Brownian motion determine the law of its local time process either at the first hitting time of a given value a by the local time at the origin, or at the first hitting time of a given position b by…

We consider the local time of the ($1+\beta$)-stable super-Brownian motion with $0<\beta<1$. It is shown by Mytnik and Perkins ({\em Ann. Probab.}, 31(3), 1413 -- 1440, (2003)) that the local time, denoted by $L(t,x)$, is jointly continuous…

We derive the moments of the first passage time for Brownian motion conditioned by either the maximum value or the area swept out by the motion. These quantities are the natural counterparts to the moments of the maximum value and area of…

We compute the joint distribution of the first times a linear diffusion makes an excursion longer than some given duration above (resp. below) some fixed level. In the literature, such stopping times have been introduced and studied in the…

The distribution of the first-passage time (FPT)$T_a$ for a Brownian particle with drift $\mu$ subject to hitting an absorber at a level $a>0$ is well-known and given by its density $\gamma(t) = \frac{a}{\sqrt{2 \pi t^3} } e^{-\frac{(a-\mu…
