Abstract
In this paper we find a good approximation for the capacitance of paths with large deviations for the Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process on Wiener space. We use this result to obtain an integral test for a function to be an upper function quasi-everywhere. The criterion differs from the necessary and sufficient condition for a function to be a.s. upper. We believe that this is a qualitatively new result.
