A new proof of Liggett’s theorem for non-interacting Brownian motions

Abstract

In this note, we give a new proof of Liggett’s theorem on the invariant measures of independent particle systems from [11] in the particular case of independent drifted Brownian motions. This particular case has received a lot of attention recently due to its applications for the analysis of the local extrema of discrete Gaussian free field. The novelty of our proof is that it identifies directly the expected Poisson Point Process with exponential intensity without relying on the Choquet-Deny convolution equation $\mathrm{\mu }\ast P=\mathrm{\mu }$ ([6, 7]).
