Soit f une fonction non négative singulière seulement pour x=0 : f(x)=|x| -α , α>0. On étudie le comportement du processus de Wiener W(t) dans les voisinages à droite et à gauche des traversées d’un niveau, et on donne des conditions nécessaires et suffisantes pour que les intégrales de f(W(t)) soient finies ou infinies.

Let f(x) be a nonnegative function with its only singularity at x=0, e.g. f(x)=|x| -α , α>0. We study the behavior of the Wiener process W(t) in left and right hand neighborhoods of level crossings by finding necessary and sufficient conditions on f for the integrals of f(W(t)) to be finite or infinite.
