Abstract: | Summary In this paper we define Brownian local time as the almost sure limit of the local times of a nested sequence of simple, symmetric random walks. The limit is jointly continuous in ]]>]]>(t,x)$. The rate of convergence is $n^{frac14} (log n)^{frac34}$ that is close to the best possible. The tools we apply are almost exclusively from elementary probability theory. |
