Abstract

Let $\tau_\varOmega$ denote the lifetime of Brownian motion in an open connected set $\varOmega\subset\mathbb{R}^m$. We obtain the asymptotic behaviour of the expected lifetime $\mathbb{E}_x^y[\tau_\varOmega]$ as $y\to x$, where the Brownian motion is conditioned to start at $x$ and to exit $\varOmega\setminus\{y\}$ at $\{y\}$.
