Some Variational Formulas with Applications to Large Deviations

Tuesday, November 22, 2011 at 11:30am - 12:30pm

Speaker: Amarjit Budhiraja, University of North Carolina

Variational representations for moments of nonnegative functionals on Wiener and Poisson spaces will be introduced. Such representations are useful in the study of many large deviations problems. In this talk, we will consider several such problems, these include weakly interacting jump diffusions, SPDEs driven by Brownian and Poisson noises, stochastic averaging problems and stochastic flows of diffeomorphisms. This talk is based on joint works with P. Dupuis, V. Maroulas, M. Fischer and J. Chen.
