On a Brownian motion conditioned to stay in an open set

Abstract: Distribution of a Brownian motion conditioned to start from the boundary of an open set $G$ and to stay in $G$ for a finite period of time is studied. Characterizations of such distributions in terms of certain singular stochastic differential equations are obtained. Results are applied to the study of boundaries of clusters in some coalescing stochastic flows on $\mathbb{R}.$
