Large deviation principle

Let (X, ρ) be a complete separable metric space with X-valued random variables Xn, n ≥ 1. We say that family {Xn} satisfies large deviation principle (LDP) with rate function I : X → [0, ∞] if, for each opened set A, lim inf

n→∞

1 n log P {Xn ∈ A} ≥ − inf

x∈A I(x),

(1) and, for each closed set B, lim sup

n→∞

1 n log P {Xn ∈ B} ≤ − inf

x∈B I(x).

(2) If (1) holds and (2) holds for each compact set B only then family {Xn} satisfies weak LDP. If each level set {x : I(x) ≤ a} , a ≥ 0, is compact then we call rate function I “good”.

  • Remark. Rate function in Theorem 2 differs from standart Freidlin-Wentzell result. The

reason for this is that we require rate function to be lower semicontinuous and function Q(y) = 1 2 T (a(y(t)) − ˙ y(t))2 σ2(y(t)) dt, in general, is not lower semicontinuous.

Let {Xn} be a sequence of X-valued random variables and consider the rate transform Λ(f) = lim

n→∞

1 n log Eenf(Xn) Varadhan Lemma. Suppose that {Xn} satisfies large deviation principle with good rate function I. Then for each f ∈ Cb(X) Λ(f) = sup

x∈X

{f(x) − I(x)}. Bryc formula Suppose that the sequence {Xn} is exponentially tight and that the rate transform Λ(f) exists for each f ∈ Cb(X). Then {Xn} satisfies large deviation principle with good rate function I(x) = sup

f∈Cb(X)

{f(x) − Λ(f)} Proofs of these statements one can find in, e.g., Feng, Kurtz’06.

Some comments

The rate transform in Bryc formula for the family of solutions to (3) one can write with the help of Girsanov transformation through the solutions to (4) in the following form: Λ(f) = lim

n→∞

1 n log E exp{ng(Y n) − 1 2 T σ2(Y n
