Lewis: The large deviation principle in statistical mechanics: an expository account -- M. van den Berg, J.T. Lewis: Limit theorems for stochastic processes associated with a Boson gas -- M. van den Berg, J.T. Lewis, J. Pule: Large deviations and the Boson gas -- M.J. Chappell, K.D.

Kifer: A note on stochastic models and expanding transformations; Electronic reproduction; [Place of publication not identified]; HathiTrust Digital Library; 2010 N2 - The main theme of the meeting was to illustrate the use of stochastic processes in the study of topological problems in quantum physics and statistical mechanics. Much discussion of current problems was generated and there was a considerable amount of interaction between mathematicians and physicists. The papers presented in the proceedings are essentially of a research nature but some (Lewis, Hudson) are introductions or surveys UR - https://link-springer-com.libraryproxy.ist.ac.at/10.1007/BFb0077911 ER -
