Description: In the view of many probabilists, author Anatolii Puhalskii's research results stand among the most significant achievements in the modern theory of large deviations. In fact, his work marked a turning point in the depth of our understanding of the connections between the large deviation principle (LDP) and well-known methods for establishing weak
Review Quotes: "an original and significant approach (completely elaborated) to the large deviation theory through possibility theory, which, as a result of this book, can be viewed as a large deviation limit of the probability theory." -Mathematical Reviews Clippings, 2002
