Large deviation theory quantifies the occurence of events that deviate from the average behavior of a system. Such events arise from non-typical trajectories of the dynamics. In this note we derive the time evolution of these rare…
We study the time-averaged flow in a model of particles that randomly hop on a finite directed graph. In the limit as the number of particles and the time window go to infinity but the graph remains finite, the large-deviation rate…

In a physical system, changing parameters such as temperature can induce a phase transition: an abrupt change from one state of matter to another. Analogous phenomena have recently been observed in large language models. Typically, the task…
