On the boundary local time measure of super-Brownian motion

If $L^x$ is the total occupation local time of $d$-dimensional super-Brownian motion, $X$, for $d=2$ and $d=3$, we construct a random measure $\mathcal{L}$, called the boundary local time measure, as a rescaling of $L^x e^{-\lambda L^x} dx$as$\lambda\to \infty$, thus confirming a conjecture of \cite{MP17} and further show that the support of $\mathcal{L}$ equals the topological boundary of the range of $X$, $\mathrm{\partial }\mathcal{R}$. This latter result uses a second construction of a boundary local time $\tilde{\mathcal{L}}$ given in terms of exit measures and we prove that $\tilde{\mathcal{L}}=c\mathcal{L}$ a.s. for some constant $c>0$. We derive reasonably explicit first and second moment measures for $\mathcal{L}$ in terms of negative dimensional Bessel processes and use it with the energy method to give a more direct proof of the lower bound of the Hausdorff dimension of $\mathrm{\partial }\mathcal{R}$ in \cite{HMP18}. The construction requires a refinement of the $L^2$ upper bounds in \cite{MP17} and \cite{HMP18} to exact $L^2$ asymptotics. The methods also refine the left tail bounds for $L^x$ in \cite{MP17} to exact asymptotics. We conjecture that the Minkowski content of $\mathrm{\partial }\mathcal{R}$ is equal to the total mass of the boundary local time $\mathcal{L}$ up to some constant.
