Abstract:
In this talk I will introduce the basic theory of Freidlin and Wentzell for random perturbations of dynamical systems. The theory deals with large deviations estimates for trajectories of Markov processes converging to a deterministic dynamical system, as well as related estimates on exit times and on the invariant measure. This talk should help understand the proofs in the following talk.
