Let W = {Wn: n ∈ N} be a sequence of random vectors in Rd, d ≥ 1. In this paper we consider the logarithmic asymptotics of the extremes of W, that is, for any vector q > 0 in Rd, we find that logP(there exists n ∈ N: Wnuq) as u → ∞. We follow the approach of the restricted large deviation principle introduced in Duffy (2003). That is, we assume that, for every q ≥ 0, and some scalings {an}, {vn}, (1 / vn)logP(Wn / an ≥ uq) has a, continuous in q, limit JW(q). We allow the scalings {an} and {vn} to be regularly varying with a positive index. This approach is general enough to incorporate sequences W, such that the probability law of Wn / an satisfies the large deviation principle with continuous, not necessarily convex, rate functions. The equations for these asymptotics are in agreement with the literature.

Let W = { W n : n ∈ N} be a sequence of random vectors in R d , d ≥ 1. In this paper we consider the logarithmic asymptotics of the extremes of W , that is, for any vector q > 0 in R d , we find that logP(there exists n ∈ N: W n u q ) as u → ∞. We follow the approach of the restricted large deviation principle introduced in Duffy (2003). That is, we assume that, for every q ≥ 0, and some scalings {a n }, {v n }, (1 / v n )logP( W n / a n ≥ u q ) has a, continuous in q , limit J W ( q ). We allow the scalings {a n } and {v n } to be regularly varying with a positive index. This approach is general enough to incorporate sequences W , such that the probability law of W n / a n satisfies the large deviation principle with continuous, not necessarily convex, rate functions. The equations for these asymptotics are in agreement with the literature.

This article proves that the on-off renewal process with Weibull sojourn times satisfies the large deviation principle on a nonlinear scale. Unusually, its rate function is not convex. Apart from on a compact set, the rate function is infinite, which enables us to construct natural processes that satisfy the large deviation principle with nontrivial rate functions on more than one time scale.

In this paper, we prove a large deviation principle for the background field in prequantum statistical field model. We show a number of examples by choosing a specific random field in our model.

We establish the large deviation principle (LDP) for stochastic flows of interacting Brownian motions. In particular, we consider smoothly correlated flows, coalescing flows and Brownian motion stopped at a hitting moment.
