- ItemThe enhanced Sanov theorem and propagation of chaos(Amsterdam [u.a.] : Elsevier, 2017) Deuschel, Jean-Dominique; Friz, Peter K.; Maurelli, Mario; Slowik, MartinWe establish a Sanov type large deviation principle for an ensemble of interacting Brownian rough paths. As application a large deviations for the (-layer, enhanced) empirical measure of weakly interacting diffusions is obtained. This in turn implies a propagation of chaos result in a space of rough paths and allows for a robust analysis of the particle system and its McKean–Vlasov type limit, as shown in two corollaries.
- ItemHomogenization theory for the random conductance model with degenerate ergodic weights and unbounded-range jumps(Berlin : Weierstraß-Institut für Angewandte Analysis und Stochastik, 2017) Flegel, Franziska; Heida, Martin; Slowik, MartinWe study homogenization properties of the discrete Laplace operator with random conductances on a large domain in Zd. More precisely, we prove almost-sure homogenization of the discrete Poisson equation and of the top of the Dirichlet spectrum. We assume that the conductances are stationary, ergodic and nearest-neighbor conductances are positive. In contrast to earlier results, we do not require uniform ellipticity but certain integrability conditions on the lower and upper tails of the conductances. We further allow jumps of arbitrary length. Without the long-range connections, the integrability condition on the lower tail is optimal for spectral homogenization. It coincides with a necessary condition for the validity of a local central limit theorem for the random walk among random conductances. As an application of spectral homogenization, we prove a quenched large deviation principle for the normalized and rescaled local times of the random walk in a growing box. Our proofs are based on a compactness result for the Laplacian’s Dirichlet energy, Poincaré inequalities, Moser iteration and two-scale convergence.
