Abstract

We consider local singular perturbations of a one-dimensional Laplace operator from the point of view of semigroup theory. Under certain assumptions, we prove the convergence of the corresponding semigroups to the heat semigroup with Robin-type boundary conditions at zero. As an application we provide semigroup theoretical approach to calculating the distribution of the local time for Brownian motion when it exits an interval.
