Because $\tilde{F}$ solves the differential equation from part (c), the Itô formula makes $\tilde{F}(V_t)$ a local martingale before $\tau$. The defining improper integral converges at both endpoints: its integrand is asymptotic to $(-u{)}^{1-d}$ near zero and to $|u{|}^{d-3}$ at minus infinity. Since $1<d<2$, both exponents are integrable. Henceso the stopped local martingale is a bounded martingale.

If ${\tau }_x<{\tau }_y$, then $V_t\to 0$ and $\tilde{F}(V_t)\to 0$. If ${\tau }_y<{\tau }_x$, then $V_t\to -\infty$ and $\tilde{F}(V_t)\to I$. The hitting times cannot coincide because $X_t-Y_t$ stays positive. The optional sampling theorem for a supermartingale and bounded convergence theorem therefore giveConsequentlywhich is the Two-sided SLE boundary swallowing probability.
