Reflected Brownian motion in generic triangles and wedges
Abstract
Consider a generic triangle in the upper half of the complex plane with one side on the real line. This paper presents a tailored construction of a discrete random walk whose continuum limit is a Brownian motion in the triangle, reflected instantaneously on the left and right sides with constant reflection angles. Starting from the top of the triangle, it is evident from the construction that the reflected Brownian motion lands with the uniform distribution on the base. Combined with conformal invariance and the locality property, this uniform exit distribution allows us to compute distribution functions characterizing the hull generated by the reflected Brownian motion.
