Together with some simple good-$\\lambda$ type arguments, this implies the order of integrability for the exit time of these domains; a result first proved for $\\alpha =1/2$ by Ba\\~nuelos, DeBlassie and Smits \\cite{ba} and for general $\\alpha$ by Li \\cite{li}. A sharp version of this result is also proved in higher dimensions.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2004-07-16T13:16:10.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "brownian motion", "sharp integrability", "parabola-shaped regions", "sharp order", "higher dimensions" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "adsabs": "2003math.....12037B" } } }
