Heuristic approach to some laws for Brownian motion

Csàki and Vincze have shown that for an elementary tied‐down random walk, the pair (maximum, instant of maximum) has the same law as (time spent in (0, 1/2), time spent above 1/2). Formal passage to the limit indicates that the former pair has for a Brownian bridge the same law as (local time at 0, duration of positivity). A quadrivariate density of Karatzas and Shreve and an equivalence for Brownian motion with drift follow.
