Abstract

Let B=(Bt)t0 be a standard Brownian motion and let (Ltx;t0,x) be a continuous version of its local time process. We show that the following limitlimε0(1/2ε)0t{F(s,Bsε)F(s,Bs+ε)}ds is well defined for a large class of functions F(t,x), and moreover we connect it with the integration with respect to local time Ltx . We give an illustrative example of the nonlinearity of the integration with respect to local time in the random case.
