Abstract
We obtain new upper tail probabilities of -times integrated Brownian motions under the uniform norm and the norm. For the uniform norm, Talagrand's approach is used, while for the norm, Zolotare's approach together with suitable metric entropy and the associated small ball probabilities are used. This proposed method leads to an interesting and concrete connection between small ball probabilities and upper tail probabilities (large ball probabilities) for general Gaussian random variable in Banach spaces. As applications, explicit bounds are given for the largest eigenvalue of the covariance operator, and appropriate limiting behaviors of the Laplace transforms of -times integrated Brownian motions are presented as well.
