Abstract.

In connection with the theory for Brownian motion on fractals, a corresponding Dirichlet form has been defined. We consider here the fractal known as the Sierpinski gasket, and characterize the trace of the domain of the Dirichlet form to the boundary of the gasket, boundary in this context meaning the triangle which confines the gasket.
