Title Asymptotic and Large Deviations Methods
Description The lecture presents fundamental results concerning asymptotic expansions and large deviations including the Edgeworth and tilted Edgeworth expansions for the mean, the Lemma of Watson Lemma, the saddlepoint expansion of integrals, the Cramer, the Gaertner-Ellis and the Sanov theorems, Pade and other approximations. Applications to distributions of M-estimators and of estimators of autoregressive time series, to a posteriori expectations and to distributions of first passage times of stochastic processes are presented.
