Large deviations for statistics of the Jacobi process. (English) Zbl 1158.60008

Summary: This paper aims to derive large deviations for statistics of the Jacobi process already conjectured by M. Zani in her thesis. To proceed, we write in a simpler way the Jacobi semi-group density. Being given by a bilinear sum involving Jacobi polynomials, it differs from Hermite and Laguerre cases by the quadratic form of its eigenvalues. Our attempt relies on subordinating the process using a suitable random time change. This gives a Mehler-type formula whence we recover the desired semi-group density. Once we do, an adaptation of M. Zani [Stochastic Processes Appl. 102, No. 1, 25–42 (2002; Zbl 1075.62535)] to the non-steep case will provide the required large deviations principle.
