Large deviations and renormalization for Riesz potentials of stable intersection measures

From MaRDI portal



Abstract: We study the object formally defined as gamma�ig([0,t]^{2}�ig)=intint_{[0,t]^{2}} | X_{s}- X_{r}|^{-sigma} dr ds-Eintint_{[0,t]^{2}} | X_{s}- X_{r}|^{-sigma} dr ds, where Xt is the symmetric stable processes of index in Rd. When , this has to be defined as a limit, in the spirit of renormalized self-intersection local time. We obtain results about the large deviations and laws of the iterated logarithm for gamma. This is applied to obtain results about stable processes in random potentials.


The authors study asymptotics and large deviations of Riesz potentials of intersection measures of stable processes. If \((X_t: t \geq 0)\) is a \(d\)-dimensional stable process, and \(A\) is a Borel subset of \(\mathbb R_+^2\), the intersection measure of \(X\) is defined as \[ \mu_A(B) = \int\int_A 1_{\{X_s - X_r \in B\}}\,dr ds, \] defined on \(\mathbb R^d\). The case when \[ A = [0,t]^2_< = \{ (r,s) \in [0,t]^2: r < s\} \] is of particular interest. The authors study the Riesz potential of \(\mu_{[0,t]^2_<}\): \[ \int_{\mathbb R^d} \frac{1}{|x - z|^\sigma} \mu_{[0,t]^2_<}(dx). \] Motivations for this problem come from electrostatistics and from random polymers. They prove a large deviation result for the intersection measure \(\mu_{[0,1]^2_<}\). Using the scaling property of the stable process, this can be used to give large time asymptotics for polarons with long-range interactions. The large deviation result also gives a law of the iterated logarithm for \(\mu_{[0,t]^2_<}\) when \(t \rightarrow \infty\).
