The normalized exponential moment of an exit time #
A uniform bound E_x[τ(U)] ≤ T for the expected exit time, valid from every
starting point, normalizes a positive exponential moment of the exit time to
2: at the multiplier K = 38 the survival probability at the horizon K T
is at most K⁻¹, and the rate λ is admissible as soon as
exp (38 λ T) ≤ 19/10, that is λ ≤ log(19/10)/(38 T).
The uniform bound is only available at the starting points of U, whereas the
normalization asks for it at every starting point. The two agree: a process
started outside U leaves it at once, so the expected exit time vanishes
there.

1. The normalized exponential moment #
A bound on the open set bounds the expected exit time everywhere. A process started outside the open set leaves it at once.
The normalized exponential moment of the exit time. If the expected
exit time from the open set U is at most T from every point of U, then
every rate λ ≥ 0 with 38 λ T ≤ log(19/10) has exponential moment at most
2, from every starting point.
