Sur le temps local d'intersection du mouvement brownien plan et la méthode de renormalisation de Varadhan (Brownian motion)
The normalized self-intersection local time of planar Brownian motion was shown to exist by Varadhan (Appendix to Euclidean quantum field theory, by K.~Symanzik, in Local Quantum Theory, Academic Press, 1969). This is established anew here by a completely different method, using the intersection local time of two independent planar Brownian motions (whose existence was established by Geman, Horowitz and Rosen, Ann. Prob. 12, 1984) and a sequence of dyadic decompositions of the triangle $\{0<s<t\le1\}$
Comment: Later, Dynkin, Rosen, Le Gall and others have shown existence of a renormalized local time for the multiple self-intersection of arbitrary order $n$ of planar Brownian motion. A good reference is Le Gall, École d'Été de Saint-Flour XX, Springer LNM 1527

Compléments aux formules de Tanaka-Rosen (Brownian motion)
Several variants of Rosen's works (Comm. Math. Phys. 88 (1983), Ann. Proba. 13 (1985), Ann. Proba. 14 (1986)) are presented. They yield Tanaka-type formulae for the self-intersection local times of Brownian motion in dimension 2 and beyond, establishing again Varadhan's normalization result (Appendix to Euclidean quantum field theory, by K.~Symanzik, in Local Quantum Theory, Academic Press, 1969). The methods involve stochastic calculus, which was not needed in 1928
Comment: Examples of further work on this subject, using stochastic calculus or not, are Werner, Ann. I.H.P. 29 (1993) who gives many references, Khoshnevisan-Bass, Ann. I.H.P. 29 (1993), Rosen-Yor Ann. Proba. 19 (1991)

Renormalisation et convergence en loi pour des temps locaux d'intersection du mouvement brownien dans ${\bf R}^3$ (Brownian motion)
It is shown that no renormalization à la Varadhan occurs for the self-intersection local times of 3-dimensional Brownian motion; but a weaker result is established: when the point $y\inR^3$ tends to $0$, the self-intersection local time at $y$, on the triangle $\{0<s<u\le t\},\ t\ge0$, centered and divided by $(-\log|y|)^{1/2}$, converges in law to a Brownian motion. Several variants of this theorem are established
Comment: This result was used by Le Gall in his work on fluctuations of the Wiener sausage: Ann. Prob. 16 (1988). Many results by Rosen have the same flavour

ROSEN, Jay S.
A renormalized local time for multiple intersections of planar Brownian motion (Brownian motion)
Using Fourier techniques, the existence of a renormalized local time for $n$-fold self-intersections of planar Brownian motion is obtained, thus extending the case $n=2$, obtained in the pioneering work of Varadhan (Appendix to Euclidean quantum field theory, by K.~Symanzik, in Local Quantum Theory, Academic Press, 1969)
Comment: Closely related to 2036. A general reference is Le Gall, École d'Été de Saint-Flour XX, Springer LNM 1527

Sur la représentation comme intégrales stochastiques des temps d'occupation du mouvement brownien dans ${\bf R}^d$ (Brownian motion)
Varadhan's renormalization result (Appendix to Euclidean quantum field theory, by K.~Symanzik, in Local Quantum Theory consists in centering certain sequences of Brownian functionals and showing $L^2$-convergence. The same results are obtained here by writing these centered functionals as stochastic integrals
Comment: One of mny applications of stochastic calculus to the existence and regularity of self-intersection local times. See Rosen's papers on this topic in general, and page 196 of Le Gall, École d'Été de Saint-Flour XX, Springer LNM 1527
