Compare the hull with the empty hull and the filled unit half-disc . Their mapping-out functions of compact H-hulls are and , the latter also giving the half-plane capacity of a half-disc.
Use one planar Brownian motion started at , with . For , exiting through entails avoiding , while exiting through this interval entails reaching it before exit from the whole half-plane. Thus the tail harmonic measures satisfy
For any of these fixed hulls , the Poisson kernel for the upper half-plane gives the exact tail formula
Subtract from , multiply by , and take the limit. The inequalities reverse, yielding the real boundary bounds:
Applying this result to the reflected hull also gives
The comparison is of Brownian exit events, so it does not assume that arbitrary conformal maps are pointwise ordered by domain inclusion.
