For planar Brownian motion started at (x,y) with y>0, the probability that its first hit of the real axis lies in (0,∞) is
21​+π1​arctanyx​=1−π1​arg(x+iy).
(1)
This is the bounded harmonic function in the upper half-plane with boundary values zero on the negative half-axis and one on the positive half-axis.
