Abstract

Suppose that S is a closed set of the unit sphere \(\mathbb {S}^{d-1} = \{x\in \mathbb {R}^d: |x| =1\}\) in dimension d ≥ 2, which has positive surface measure. We construct the law of absorption of an isotropic stable Lévy process in dimension d ≥ 2 conditioned to approach S continuously, allowing for the interior and exterior of \(\mathbb {S}^{d-1}\) to be visited infinitely often. Additionally, we show that this process is in duality with the unconditioned stable Lévy process. We can replicate the aforementioned results by similar ones in the setting that S is replaced by D, a closed bounded subset of the hyperplane \(\{x\in \mathbb {R}^d : (x, v) = 0\}\) with positive surface measure, where v is the unit orthogonal vector and where (⋅, ⋅) is the usual Euclidean inner product. Our results complement similar results of the authors [17] in which the stable process was further constrained to attract to and repel from S from either the exterior or the interior of the unit sphere.

We will distinguish integrals with respect to one-dimensional Lebesgue measure as taking the form \(\int \cdot \, \mathrm {d} x\), where as higher dimensional integrals will always indicate the dimension, for example \(\int \cdot \, \ell _d(\mathrm {d} x)\).
