Large Deviations Principles for Coulomb gases at intermediate temperature regime - David Padilla-Garza

This talk deals with Coulomb gases at an intermediate temperature regime. We define a local empirical field and identify a critical temperature scaling. We show that if the scaling of the temperature is supercritical, the local empirical field satisfies an LDP with an entropy-based rate function. We also show that if the scaling of the temperature is subcritical, the local empirical field satisfies an LDP with an energy-based rate function. In the critical temperature scaling regime, we derive an LDP-type result in which the "rate function" features the competition of entropy and energy terms.
