The idea that statistical mechanics can be formulated in the language of large deviations has also been expressed in a number of review papers, including one by Oono [], two by Ellis [85, 86], and the seminal paper of Lanford [], which is considered to be the first work on large deviations and statistical mechanics. Varadhan’s Large Deviation Principle is a highly efficient way of organizing such arguments which is attracting growing interest in the field of statistical not only furnishes new, clearer proofs of old results but it provides the means for solving Cited by: 3.

Besides the fact that the author's treatment of large deviations is and statistical mechanics book nice contribution to the literature on the subject, his book has the virue that it provides a beautifully unified and mathematically appealing account of certain aspects of statistical mechanics.
Furthermore, he does not make the mistake of assuming that his mathematical audience will be familiar. Entropy, in its various guises, is their common core. The large deviation theory which is developed in this book focuses upon convergence properties of certain stochastic systems.
An elementary example is the weak law of large numbers. From the reviews: " Each chapter of the book is followed by a notes section and by a problems section.
There are over problems, many of which have hints. The book may be recommended as a text, it provides a completly self-contained reading " --S. Pogosian in Zentralblatt für Price: $ Ellis, Richard S.

Both are probability-agnostic as far as I can tell; what you see here is my own Bayesian spin. This book has two main topics: large deviations and equilibrium statistical mechanics. I hope to convince the reader that these topics have many points of contact and that in being treated together, they enrich each other.

This classic book marks the beginning of an era of vigorous mathematical progress in equilibrium statistical mechanics.
Its treatment of the infinite system limit has not been superseded, and the discussion of thermodynamic functions and states remains basic for more recent work. The conceptual foundation provided by the Rigorous Results remains invaluable for the study of 5/5(1).

The theory of large deviations deals with the probabilities of rare events (or fluctuations) that are exponentially small as a function of some parameter, e.g., the number of random components of a system, the time over which a stochastic system is observed, the amplitude of the noise perturbing a dynamical system or the temperature of a chemical reaction.
