Abstract

The negative moment of order 1, resp. of order 1/2, for the integral on (0, 1) of the exponential of α times the Brownian bridge, resp. the Brownian motion, does not depend on α. We give a simple explanation and a reinforcement of this property in the case of the Brownian bridge. We then discuss how different the case of the Brownian motion is.
