By constructing a multicanonical Monte Carlo simulation, we obtain the full probability distribution $rho_N(r)$ of the degree assortativity coefficient $r$ on configuration networks of size $N$ by using the multiple histogram reweighting method. We suggest that $rho_N(r)$ obeys a large deviation principle, $rho_N left( r- r_N^* right) asymp {e^{ - {N^xi }Ileft( {r- r_N^* } right)}}$, where the rate function $I$ is convex and possesses its unique minimum at $r=r_N^*$, and $xi$ is an exponent that scales $rho_N$s with $N$. We show that $xi=1$ for Poisson random graphs, and $xigeq1$ for scale-free networks in which $xi$ is a decreasing function of the degree distribution exponent $gamma$. Our results reveal that the fluctuations of $r$ exhibits an anomalous scaling with $N$ in highly heterogeneous networks.

The following question is the subject of our work: could a two-dimensional random path pushed by some constraints to an improbable large deviation regime, possess extreme statistics with one-dimensional Kardar-Parisi-Zhang (KPZ) fluctuations? The ans wer is positive, though non-universal, since the fluctuations depend on the underlying geometry. We consider in details two examples of 2D systems for which imposed external constraints force the underlying stationary stochastic process to stay in an atypical regime with anomalous statistics. The first example deals with the fluctuations of a stretched 2D random walk above a semicircle or a triangle. In the second example we consider a 2D biased random walk along a channel with forbidden voids of circular and triangular shapes. In both cases we are interested in the dependence of a typical span $left< d(t) right> sim t^{gamma}$ of the trajectory of $t$ steps above the top of the semicircle or the triangle. We show that $gamma = frac{1}{3}$, i.e. $left< d(t) right>$ shares the KPZ statistics for the semicircle, while $gamma=0$ for the triangle. We propose heuristic derivations of scaling exponents $gamma$ for different geometries, justify them by explicit analytic computations and compare with numeric simulations. For practical purposes, our results demonstrate that the geometry of voids in a channel might have a crucial impact on the width of the boundary layer and, thus, on the heat transfer in the channel.
The typical values and fluctuations of time-integrated observables of nonequilibrium processes driven in steady states are known to be characterized by large deviation functions, generalizing the entropy and free energy to nonequilibrium systems. The definition of these functions involves a scaling limit, similar to the thermodynamic limit, in which the integration time $tau$ appears linearly, unless the process considered has long-range correlations, in which case $tau$ is generally replaced by $tau^xi$ with $xi eq 1$. Here we show that such an anomalous power-law scaling in time of large deviations can also arise without long-range correlations in Markovian processes as simple as the Langevin equation. We describe the mechanism underlying this scaling using path integrals and discuss its physical consequences for more general processes.
Degree assortativity refers to the increased or decreased probability of connecting two neurons based on their in- or out-degrees, relative to what would be expected by chance. We investigate the effects of such assortativity in a network of theta ne urons. The Ott/Antonsen ansatz is used to derive equations for the expected state of each neuron, and these equations are then coarse-grained in degree space. We generate families of effective connectivity matrices parametrised by assortativity coefficient and use SVD decompositions of these to efficiently perform numerical bifurcation analysis of the coarse-grained equations. We find that of the four possible types of degree assortativity, two have no effect on the networks dynamics, while the other two can have a significant effect.
The climate system is a complex, chaotic system with many degrees of freedom and variability on a vast range of temporal and spatial scales. Attaining a deeper level of understanding of its dynamical processes is a scientific challenge of great urgen cy, especially given the ongoing climate change and the evolving climate crisis. In statistical physics, complex, many-particle systems are studied successfully using the mathematical framework of Large Deviation Theory (LDT). A great potential exists for applying LDT to problems relevant for geophysical fluid dynamics and climate science. In particular, LDT allows for understanding the fundamental properties of persistent deviations of climatic fields from the long-term averages and for associating them to low-frequency, large scale patterns of climatic variability. Additionally, LDT can be used in conjunction with so-called rare events algorithms to explore rarely visited regions of the phase space and thus to study special dynamical configurations of the climate. These applications are of key importance to improve our understanding of high-impact weather and climate events. Furthermore, LDT provides powerful tools for evaluating the probability of noise-induced transitions between competing metastable states of the climate system or of its components. This in turn essential for improving our understanding of the global stability properties of the climate system and of its predictability of the second kind in the sense of Lorenz. The goal of this review is manifold. First, we want to provide an introduction to the derivation of large deviation laws in the context of stochastic processes. We then relate such results to the existing literature showing the current status of applications of LDT in climate science and geophysical fluid dynamics. Finally, we propose some possible lines of future investigations.

Employing the optimal fluctuation method (OFM), we study the large deviation function of long-time averages $(1/T)int_{-T/2}^{T/2} x^n(t) dt$, $n=1,2, dots$, of centered stationary Gaussian processes. These processes are correlated and, in general, n on-Markovian. We show that the anomalous scaling with time of the large-deviation function, recently observed for $n>2$ for the particular case of the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process, holds for a whole class of stationary Gaussian processes.
