Brownian upper law of the iterated logarithm (${\mathrm{limsup}}_{t\to \infty }{B}_t/\sqrt{2t\log \log t}\le 1$)

For standard Brownian motion, the Brownian reflection principle bounds the probability that its maximum up to $a^n$ exceeds $(1+\epsilon )\sqrt{2a^n\log \log (a^n)}$ by $2(n\log a{)}^{-(1+\epsilon {)}^2}$. This is summable for every $a>1$ and $\epsilon >0$. The Borel-Cantelli first lemma controls these geometric times, monotonicity of the normalizing function controls the intervening times, and countable choices $a\downarrow 1$, $\epsilon \downarrow 0$ give the bound. Equality requires a separate lower-bound proof.
