Applications of Large Deviations and their outcomes to Physics are surveyed. The book covers topics encompassing ergodicity and its breaking and the modern applications of Large deviations to equilibrium and non-equilibrium statistical physics, disordered and chaotic systems, and turbulence.}, url = {http://library.usi.edu/record/705062}, doi = {https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-642-54251-0}, }
