On a stopped Brownian motion formula of H.M.~Taylor (
Brownian motion)
This formula gives the joint distribution of $X_T$ and $T$, where $X$ is standard Brownian motion and $T$ is the first time $M_T-X_T=a$, $M_t$ denoting the supremum of $X$ up to time $t$. Two different new proofs are given
Comment: For the original proof of Taylor see
Ann. Prob. 3, 1975. For modern references, we should ask Yor

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,

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,
Ann. I.H.P. 23 (1987), Yor,
Ann. I.H.P. 27 (1991)
