Abstract

In the paper, we investigate the intersection local time for two correlated Brownian motions on the plane that form a diffusion process in ℝ4 associated with a divergence-form generator. Using Gaussian heat kernel bounds, we prove the existence of intersection local time for these Brownian motions, obtain estimates of its moments, and establish the law of iterated logarithm for it.
