Abstract

The following result is proved: For any given continuous function and any T > 0, the set of points between zero and T where the sample path of a standard separable Brownian motion process intersects the graph of the function is almost surely either a perfect set or a set which is perfect if the origin is removed. Sufficient conditions are given for that set to be perfect and sufficient conditions are given for it to be perfect if the origin is removed.
