Abstract
We prove a general result on the exact asymptotics of the probability
as u → ∞, where p > 0, for a stationary Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process η γ(t), i.e., a Gaussian Markov process with zero mean and with the covariance function Eηγ(t)ηγ(s), t, s ∈ ℝ, γ > 0. We use the Laplace method for Gaussian measures in Banach spaces. Evaluation of constants is reduced to solving an extreme value problem for the rate function and studying the spectrum of a second-order differential operator of the Sturm-Liouville type. For p = 1 and p = 2, explicit formulas for the asymptotics are given.
