Abstract:
Under exponential tightness hypothesis, we show that the large deviation functional has the same variational form as when large deviations hold. As an application, we identify the affine regularization of a rate function on any real Hausdorff topological vector space in terms of . Some classical results involving the generalized log-moment generating function are improved.
