Sur certaines fonctionnelles exponentielles du mouvement brownien réel

Abstract

Dufresne [1] recently showed that the integral of the exponential of Brownian motion with negative drift is distributed as the reciprocal of a gamma variable. In this paper, it is shown that this result is another formulation of the distribution of last exit times for transient Bessel processes. A bivariate distribution of such integrals of exponentials is also obtained explicitly.
