Abstract: | We prove that the ground-state eigenfunction for symmetric stable processes of order α∈(0,2) killed upon leaving the interval (?1,1) is concave on $(-\frac{1}{2},\frac{1}{2})We prove that the ground-state eigenfunction for symmetric stable processes of order α∈(0,2) killed upon leaving the interval
(−1,1) is concave on
. We call this property “mid-concavity”. A similar statement holds for rectangles in ℝd, d>1. These result follow from similar results for finite-dimensional distributions of Brownian motion and subordination.
