Abstract: | Summary SupposeZ(·) is a two-dimensional Brownian motion. It is shown that a.s. there existt
0 and >0 such thatZ(t
0) is an extremal point of the convex hull of {Z(t)|t
0–tt0} and also an extremal point of the convex hull of {Z(t)|t
0tt0+} and, moreover, the tangent lines to the convex hulls atZ(t
0) form a non-zero angle.The result is related to the following unsolved problem of S.J. Taylor. Do there exist a.s.t
0 and >0 such that the intersection of the convex hulls of {Z(t)|t
0–tt0} and {Z(t)|t
0tt0+} contains onlyZ(t
0)?This research was partially supported by Grant-in-Aid for Scientific Research (No. 400101540202), Ministry of Education, Science and Culture |
