The polynomial tail lower-bound conjecture for spiral-like domains

About 6 years old · traced to

Let W≠CW\neq\mathbb C be a simply connected spiral-like planar domain containing 00, let TWT_W denote the first exit time of planar Brownian motion from WW, and define

H(W)=sup⁡{p>0:E[(TW)p]<∞}.{\rm H}(W)=\sup\{p>0:{\bf E}[(T^W)^p]<\infty\}.

Polynomial tail conjecture. For every p>H(W)p>{\rm H}(W), there exists a constant C>0C>0 such that

P(TW>t)≥Ctp.{\bf P}(T_W>t)\geq\frac{C}{t^p}.

The authors state that this bound would imply the preceding long-stay limit conjecture for spiral-like domains. It remains unproved in the paper.
