Contraction principle (large deviations theory)

In mathematics — specifically, in large deviations theory — the contraction principle is a theorem that states how a large deviation principle on one space "pushes forward" (via the pushforward of a probability measure) to a large deviation principle on another space via a continuous function. (Wikipedia).

What is Length Contraction?

What is length contraction? Length contraction gives the second piece (along with time dilation) of the puzzle that allows us to reconcile the fact that the speed of light is constant in all reference frames.

Yier Lin (Columbia) -- Short time large deviations of the KPZ equation

We establish the Freidlin--Wentzell Large Deviation Principle (LDP) for the Stochastic Heat Equation with multiplicative noise in one spatial dimension. That is, we introduce a small parameter $\sqrt{\epsilon}$ to the noise, and establish an LDP for the trajectory of the solution. Such a F

Given any isotropic convex body in high dimension, it is known that its typical random projections will be approximately standard Gaussian. The universality in this central limit perspective restricts the information that can be retrieved from the lower-dimensional projections. In contrast
