Abstract
This work aims to prove the large deviation principle for a class of stochastic partial differential equations with locally monotone coefficients under the extended variational framework, which generalizes many previous works. Using stochastic control and the weak convergence approach, we prove the Laplace principle, which is equivalent to the large deviation principle in our framework. Instead of assuming compactness of the embedding in the corresponding Gelfand triple or finite dimensional approximation of the diffusion coefficient in some existing works, we only assume some temporal regularity in the diffusion coefficient.
