Write
This is the harmonic measure of viewed from , and is a bounded harmonic function outside the closed target disc. The disc is contained in . In the half-plane cut out by a line through the origin, the probability of reaching before , from a point of modulus , is uniformly in the direction. One sees this by mapping the half-plane outside the disc with to a half-strip and solving the corresponding Dirichlet problem by a sine series.
Part (b) consequently shows that the angular oscillation of on a large circle tends to zero, uniformly in the Borel set . The same half-strip estimate in the annulus shows that shifting the center of that circle by the fixed vector changes the average of by , uniformly in . Hence, for every , all sufficiently large satisfy
for every Borel subset of the target disc.
