Abstract

We extend the large deviation principles for random walks and processes with independent increments to the case of conditional probabilities given that the position of the trajectory at the last time moment is localized in a neighborhood of some point. As a corollary, we obtain a moderately large deviation principle for empirical distributions (an analog of Sanov’s theorem).
