Moderate deviations for stationary sequences of bounded random variables
Annales de l'I.H.P. Probabilités et statistiques, Volume 45 (2009) no. 2, pp. 453-476.

In this paper we derive the moderate deviation principle for stationary sequences of bounded random variables under martingale-type conditions. Applications to functions of ϕ-mixing sequences, contracting Markov chains, expanding maps of the interval, and symmetric random walks on the circle are given.

Dans cet article, nous établissons un principe de déviation modérée pour des suites stationnaires de variables aléatoires bornées sous différentes conditions projectives. Nous appliquons ces résultats aux suites ϕ-mélangeantes, à certaines chaînes de Markov contractantes, aux transformations uniformément dilatantes de l'intervalle, ainsi qu'à la marche aléatoire symétrique sur le cercle.
