The Large Deviation Principle is established for stochastic models defined by past-dependent non linear recursions with small noise. In the Markov case we use the result to obtain an explicit expression for the asymptotics of exit time.
Let $X^{(delta)}$ be a Wishart process of dimension $delta$, with values in the set of positive matrices of size $m$. We are interested in the large deviations for a family of matrix-valued processes ${delta^{-1} X_t^{(delta)}, t leq 1 }$ as $delta$ tends to infinity. The process $X^{(delta)}$ is a solution of a stochastic differential equation with a degenerate diffusion coefficient. Our approach is based upon the introduction of exponential martingales. We give some applications to large deviations for functionals of the Wishart processes, for example the set of eigenvalues.
We formulate large deviations principle (LDP) for diffusion pair $(X^epsilon,xi^epsilon)=(X_t^epsilon,xi_t^epsilon)$, where first component has a small diffusion parameter while the second is ergodic Markovian process with fast time. More exactly, the LDP is established for $(X^epsilon, u^epsilon)$ with $ u^epsilon(dt,dz)$ being an occupation type measure corresponding to $xi_t^epsilon$. In some sense we obtain a combination of Freidlin-Wentzells and Donsker-Varadhans results. Our approach relies the concept of the exponential tightness and Puhalskiis theorem.
The large deviations principles are established for a class of multidimensional degenerate stochastic differential equations with reflecting boundary conditions. The results include two cases where the initial conditions are adapted and anticipated.
We prove a Large Deviations Principle for the number of intersections of two independent infinite-time ranges in dimension five and more, improving upon the moment bounds of Khanin, Mazel, Shlosman and Sina{i} [KMSS94]. This settles, in the discrete setting, a conjecture of van den Berg, Bolthausen and den Hollander [BBH04], who analyzed this question for the Wiener sausage in finite-time horizon. The proof builds on their result (which was resumed in the discrete setting by Phetpradap [Phet12]), and combines it with a series of tools that were developed in recent works of the authors [AS17, AS19a, AS20]. Moreover, we show that most of the intersection occurs in a single box where both walks realize an occupation density of order one.
In this paper, we obtain some results on precise large deviations for non-random and random sums of widely dependent random variables with common dominatedly varying tail distribution or consistently varying tail distribution on $(-infty,infty)$. Then we apply the results to reinsurance and insurance and give some asymptotic estimates on proportional reinsurance, random-time ruin probability and the finite-time ruin probability.
