Brownian motion in $\mathbb{R}^n$, probability of hitting a set

It's not that simple. See about polar/nonpolar points/sets e.g. in http://wiki.math.toronto.edu/TorontoMathWiki/index.php/Brownian_Motion_and_Harmonic_functions If I remember correctly, a set is not …

Arcsine law for Brownian motion with drift

I don't know if there is a nice closed-form expression for this, but you can try to work it out writing $$ P[Z\leq y] = P[X_t\neq 0 \text{ for }x\in (y,1]] = \int_{-\infty}^{+\infty} f_{y}(v) P_v[X_t\ …

Brownian motion in $n$ dimensions

The process $\|B(t)\|$ is called $n$-dimensional Bessel process (or Bessel process with parameter $\nu=\frac{n}{2}-1$). I think formula $\bf 4$.1.1.4 of Borodin-Salminen "Handbook of Brownian Motion - …

Slight variation on law of the iterated logarithm

You can use the fact that $B_t-m_t$ is a reflected Brownian motion (see e.g. Revuz-Yor, Chapter VI, Theorem 2.3). I think it shouldn't be difficult to show that $$ \limsup_{t\to\infty} \frac{M_t-m_t}{ …

In the plane, does complement of Brownian path have infinitely many connected components?

Yes. Just observe that (1) on any fixed time interval the Brownian path intersects itself with positive probability (easy to see); (2) but the above implies that on any time interval the Brownian pa …
