Un théorème sur la répartition des temps locaux (Markov processes)
Kesten discovered that the value at a terminal time $T$ of the local time $L$ of a Markov process $X$ at a single point has an exponential distribution, and that $X_T$ and $L_T$ are independent. A short proof is given
Comment: The result can be deduced from excursion theory
Keywords: Local times
Nature: New exposition of known results
