Un théorème de J.W. Pitman (
Brownian motion,
Diffusion theory)
This paper contains an appendix by M. Yor. Let $(B_t)$ and $(Z_t)$ be a Brownian motion and a Bes$_3$ process both starting at $0$. Put $S_t=\sup_{s\le t} B_t$ and $J_t=\inf_{s\ge t}Z_t$. Then Pitman's theorem asserts that, in law, $2S-B=Z$ and $2J-Z=B$ (both statements being in fact equivalent). A complete proof of the theorem is given, using techniques from the general theory of processes. The appendix shows that, granted that $2S-B$ is Markov, it is easy to see that it is a Bes$_3$

A direct proof of the Ray-Knight theorem (
Brownian motion)
The (first) Ray-Knight theorem describes the law of the process $(L_T^{1-a})_{0\le a\le 1}$ where $(L^a_t)$ is the family of local times of Brownian motion starting from $0$ and $T$ is the hitting time of $1$. A direct proof is given indeed. It is reproduced in Revuz-Yor,

Williams' characterization of the Brownian excursion law: proof and applications (
Brownian motion)
In the early eighties, Ito's rigorous approach to Lévy's ideas on excursions, aroused much enthusiasm, as people discovered it led to simple and conceptual proofs of most classical results on Brownian motion, and of many new ones. This paper contains the first published proof of the celebrated description of the Ito measure discovered by Williams (Williams
Diffusions, Markov Processes and Martingales, Wiley 1979, II.67), and it collects a number of applications, including the Azéma-Yor approach to Skorohod's imbedding theorem (

Sur la mesure de Hausdorff de la courbe brownienne (
Brownian motion)
Previous results on the $h$-measure of the Brownian curve in $
R^2$ or $
R^3$ indexed by $t\in[0,1]$, by Cisielski-Taylor
Trans. Amer. Math. Soc. 103 (1962) and Taylor
Proc. Cambridge Philos. Soc. 60 (1964) are sharpened. The method uses the description à la Ray-Knight of the local times of Bessel processes
Comment: These Ray-Knight descriptions are useful ; they were later used in questions not related to Hausdorff measures. See for instance Biane-Yor,

On the martingales obtained by an extension due to Saisho, Tanemura and Yor of Pitman's theorem (
Stochastic calculus)
Martingales involving the future minimum of a transient Bessel process are studied, and shown to satisfy a non Markovian SDE. In dimension $>3$, uniqueness in law does not hold for this SDE. This generalizes Saisho-Tanemura

Some remarks on Pitman's theorem (
Stochastic calculus)
For certain transient diffusions $X$, local martingales which are functins of $X_t$ and the future infimum $\inf_{u\ge t}X_u$ are constructed. This extends the preceding article
