Abstract

Let \B(t), t ≥ 0\ be a standard Brownian motion in ℝ. Let T be the first return time to 0 after hitting 1, and \L(T,x), x ∈ ℝ\ be the local time process at time T and level x. The distribution of L(T,x) for each x ∈ ℝ is determined. This is applied to the estimation of a L1 integral on ℝ.
