Abstract

Let (Xt, Px) be the standard Brownian motion on a complete Riemannian manifold. We investigate the asymptotic behavior of the moments of the exit time from a geodesic ball when the radius tends to zero. This is combined with a "stochastic Taylor formula" to obtain a new expansion for the mean value of a function on the boundary of a geodesic ball.
