Abstract: Let (Xt,tgeq0) be a continuous time simple random walk on mathbbZd (dgeq3), and let lT(x) be the time spent by (Xt,tgeq0) on the site x up to time T. We prove a large deviations principle for the q-fold self-intersection local time IT=sumxinmathbbZdlT(x)q in the critical case q=fracdd−2. When q is integer, we obtain similar results for the intersection local times of q independent simple random walks.


The author proves a large deviation principle for the so-called \(q\)-fold self-intersection local time \(I_T\) of a simple continuous-time random walk on \(\mathbb{Z}^d\) for \(d\geq 3\). If, in particular, \(q\) is an integer \(I_T\) measures the amount of time the random walk spends on sites that are visited at least \(q\) times. The main focus is on the case when \(q= d/(d- 2)\).
