Abstract
We represent the exponential moment of the Brownian functionals under a nonlinear expectation according to the solution to a backward stochastic differential equation. As an application, we establish a large deviation principle of the Freidlin and Wentzell type under the corresponding nonlinear probability for diffusion processes with a small diffusion coefficient.
