Large deviation principle for slow-fast rough differential equations via controlled rough paths

Abstract: We prove a large deviation principle for the slow-fast rough differential equations under the controlled rough path framework. The driver rough paths are lifted from the mixed fractional Brownian motion with Hurst parameter $H\in (1/3,1/2)$. Our approach is based on the continuity of the solution mapping and the variational framework for mixed fractional Brownian motion. By utilizing the variational representation, our problem is transformed into a qualitative property of the controlled system. In particular, the fast rough differential equation coincides with It^o SDE almost surely, which possesses a unique invariant probability measure with frozen slow component. We then demonstrate the weak convergence of the controlled slow component by averaging with respect to the invariant measure of the fast equation and exploiting the continuity of the solution mapping.
