N. O'Connell

1997, v.3, Issue 4, 589-596

ABSTRACT

In this paper we present a series of examples to demonstrate the potential of using parameterised weak laws of large numbers to determine the associated large deviation rate functions. Applications include Stirling number asymptotics and random graphs.

Keywords: large deviations,Stirling numbers,random graph,giant component,connectivity,isolated subgraphs
