Some Large Deviation Results for Dynamical Systems
We prove some large deviation estimates for continuous maps of compact metric spaces and apply them to attractors in differentiable dynamics, rate of escape problems, and to shift spaces. Introduction Consider a discrete time dynamical system generated by a self-map /: X O of some domain X. Let m be a reference measure on X, and let <p : X —► R be an observable. Suppose that £ J2"fx <p ° f conv...
متن کاملSome large deviation results for sparse random graphs
We obtain a large deviation principle (LDP) for the relative size of the largest connected component in a random graph with small edge probability. The rate function, which is not convex in general, is determined explicitly using a new technique. The proof yields an asymptotic formula for the probability that the random graph is connected. We also present an LDP and related result for the numbe...
متن کاملSome path large deviation results for a branching diffusion
We give an intuitive proof of a path large-deviations result for a typed branching diffusion as found in Git, J.Harris and S.C.Harris [4]. Our approach involves an application of a change of measure technique involving a distinguished infinite line of descent, or spine, and we follow the spine setup of Hardy and Harris [5, 7, 6]. Our proof combines simple martingale ideas with applications of V...
متن کاملIntroductory Remarks on Large Deviation Statistics
The physical concept of entropy as it is used in thermodynamics is related to the mathematical formulation of a Shannon entropy. Usually only the Shannon entropy of equilibrium distributions such as a canonical distribution is considered. Large deviations statistics goes beyond that framework. Entropies are considered for arbitrary distributions or physical states, and they describe, e.g., \how...
متن کاملEntropy Properties of Certain Record Statistics and Some Characterization Results
In this paper, the largest and the smallest observations are considered, at the time when a new record of either kind (upper or lower) occurs based on a sequence of independent random variables with identical continuous distributions. We prove that sequences of the residual or past entropy of the current records characterizes F in the family of continuous distributions. The exponential and the ...
