Brownian exit-time expectation in an orthant (${\mathbb{E}}_x{T}_{(0,\infty {)}^n}<\infty ⟺n>2$)

For independent coordinates of standard Brownian motion and $x_i>0$, the Brownian reflection principle gives ${\mathbb{P}}_x(T>t)={\prod }_i[2\Phi (x_i/\sqrt{t})-1]$. This is asymptotic to $(2/\pi {)}^{n/2}{\prod }_i{x}_i{t}^{-n/2}$. The tail integral formula for expectation therefore proves the stated criterion, with logarithmic divergence in dimension two.
