On the character of convergence to Brownian local time. I (Q1062357)

Many results are known about the convergence of some processes to Brownian local time. Among such processes are the process of ''occupation times'' of Brownian motion, the number of downcrossings of Brownian motion over smaller and smaller intervals before time t, the number of visits of the recurrent integer-valued random walk to some point during n steps and others. In this paper we consider the asymptotic behaviour of the differences between Brownian local time and some of the processes which converge to it.
