Abstract
A champagne subdomain of a connected open set Uâ 0̸ in Rd, dâ¥2, is obtained by omitting pairwise disjoint closed balls B¯(x,rx), xâX, the bubbles, where X is an infinite, locally finite set in U. The union A of these balls may be unavoidable, that is, Brownian motion, starting in UâA and killed when leaving U, may hit A almost surely or, equivalently, A may have harmonic measure 1 for UâA.Recent publications by Gardiner and Ghergu (dâ¥3) and by Pres (d=2) give rather sharp answers to the question of how small such a set A may be, when U  is the unit ball.In this paper, using a totally different approach, optimal results are obtained, which hold also for arbitrary connected open sets U.
