“…(4) in Hirao [20] with (k, m) = (0, n−1) would coincide with the one of h n (η, t 2 ) in this paper. Furthermore the proof of Theorem 1.1 in Hirao [20] shows the existence of the limit for all x ∈ R. We remark that, since the random variables d F Z F z (t), z : t > 0 should be nonnegative, there is a slight inexactness in this proof. Actually, if a family of nonnegative random variables {Z(t) : t > 0} satisfies the LDP with a rate function I, the lower bound for the open set G = (−∞, 0) in the definition of LDP would yield I(x) = ∞ for x ∈ (−∞, 0); moreover, for the same reason, the limit (5.1) fails because the function Λ should be nondecreasing.…”
