L<strong>et</strong> us now show that for every t ≥ 0, L t ≤ ˜L t P a.s. L<strong>et</strong> α,ε > 0 and δ ∈ (0,1). Thanks to<br />
Corollary 2.3.7, we can find h 0 > 0 such that for every h ∈ (0,h 0 ) and n ≥ 0,<br />

We choose h ∈ (0,h 0 ) and n 0 ≥ 0 such that s n − t + h ≤ h 0 and v(h) ≤ (1 + δ)v(s n − t + h) for<br />
every n ≥ n 0 . We notice that Z(t,s n + h) ≤ Z(s n ,s n + h) so that, for every n ≥ n 0 ,<br />
P(L t > (1 + δ)L sn + ε)<br />

We have thus shown that<br />

0.<br />
So, P(L t − (1 + δ) ˜L t > ε) = 0 for every ε > 0, implying that L t ≤ (1 + δ) ˜L t , P a.s. This leads<br />
us to the claim L t ≤ ˜L t a.s. Since we saw that E(L t ) = E( ˜L t ), we have L t = ˜L t P a.s. for every<br />
t ≥ 0.<br />
Now, ( ˜L t ,t ≥ 0) is a right-continuous supermartingale. Thus, ( ˜L t ,t ≥ 0) is also left-limited<br />
and we have E( ˜L t ) ≤ E( ˜L t− ) for every t > 0. Moreover, we can prove in the same way as we did<br />
for (2.3.12) that, for every t > 0 and every sequence (s n ,n ≥ 0) in D such that s n ↑ t as n ↑ ∞,<br />
(<br />
P ˜Lsn > (1 + δ) ˜L<br />
)<br />
t + ε<br />
−→ 0,<br />
n→∞<br />
implying that ˜L t− ≤ ˜L t , P a.s. So, L t = L t− P a.s. for every t > 0 meaning that ( ˜L t ,t ≥ 0) has<br />
no fixed discontinuities.<br />
□<br />
From now on, to simplify notation, we replace (L t ,t ≥ 0) by its càdlàg modification ( ˜L t ,t ≥ 0).<br />

(X ε ) ε>0 converges to the local time L.<br />
Thanks to Lemma 2.3.1, we can define a sequence (η n ) n≥1 by the condition v(η n ) = n for every<br />
n ≥ 1. We s<strong>et</strong> m n = [ηn −1 ] where [x] denotes the integer part of x. We recall from Proposition<br />
2.3.4 that X ηn is a Galton-Watson process on (Ω, P) whose initial distribution is the Poisson<br />
distribution with param<strong>et</strong>er n. For every n ≥ 1, we define a process Y n = (Yt n ,t ≥ 0) on (Ω, P)<br />
by the following formula,<br />
Yt n = n −1 X ηn<br />

Proposition 2.3.11. For every t ≥ 0, Y n t → L t in probability as n → ∞.<br />
