Construction is given for reflecting Brownian motion in C3-smooth time-dependent domains in the n-dimensional Euclidean space Rn. Various sample path properties of RBM, its two-sided transition density functions estimate and the probabilistic representation of solutions for the corresponding partial differential equations are obtained. Furthermore, the onedimensional case is throughly studied, with the assumptions on the smoothness of the boundary drastically relaxed.238712 bytesapplication/pdfen-USReflecting Brownian motionTime-dependent domainLocal timeSkorohod decompositionHeat equation with boundary conditionsTime-inhomogeneous strong Markov processProbabilistic representationTime-reversalFeynman-Kac formulaGirsanov transformArticle
