Abstract: Consider independent Brownian motions in , each running up to its first exit time from an open domain , and their intersection local time as a measure on . We give a sharp criterion for the finiteness of exponential moments,
where are nonnegative, bounded functions with compact support in . We also derive a law of large numbers for intersection local time conditioned to have large total mass.
