Reenements of the Gibbs Conditioning Principle

چکیده
Reenements of Sanov's large deviations theorem lead via Csiszz ar's information theoretic identity to reenements of the Gibbs conditioning principle which are valid for blocks whose length increase with the length of the conditioning sequence. Sharp bounds on the growth of the block length with the length of the conditioning sequence are derived. Extensions of Csiszz ar's triangle inequality and information theoretic identity to the Markov chain set{up lead to similar reenements in the Markov case.

متن کاملLarge Deviations of Products of Empirical Measures and U-empirical Measures in Strong Topologies
We prove a large deviation principle (LDP) for m-fold products of empirical measures and for U -empirical measures, where the state space (S,S) of the underlying i. i. d. sequence of random variables is an arbitrary measurable space. For this LDP we choose a suitable subset MΦ(S ) of all probability measures on (S,S) and endow it with a topology, which is stronger than the τ -topology and makes...
متن کاملThe approach of Otto-Reznikoff revisited
In this article we consider a lattice system of unbounded continuous spins. Otto and Reznikoff used the two-scale approach to show that exponential decay of correlations yields a logarithmic Sobolev inequality (LSI) with uniform constant in the system size. We improve their statement by weakening the assumptions, for which a more detailed analysis based on two new ingredients is needed. The two...
متن کاملConcentration for Young measures and conditioned Boolean model
We present a method for determining the probability that a given point lies in the vacant region of a Boolean model subject to the condition that this probability takes imposed values on certain points. This method is based on a characterisation of the intensity of the Boolean model as a Young measure, such that after discretisation a large deviations principle holds; this induces a concentrati...
متن کاملFrom Steam Engines to Chemical Reactions: Gibbs' Contribution to the Extension of the Second Law
The present work analyzes the foundations of Gibbs’ thermodynamic equilibrium theory, with the general aim of understanding how the Second Law—as formulated by Clausius in 1865—has been embodied into Gibbs’ formal system and extended to processes involving chemical reactions. We show that Gibbs’ principle of maximal entropy (and minimal energy) is the implicit expression of Clausius’ Second Law...
