Large Deviations for $(1+1)$-dimensional Stochastic Geometric Wave Equation

Abstract: We consider stochastic wave map equation on real line with solutions taking values in a $d$-dimensional compact Riemannian manifold. We show first that this equation has unique, global, strong in PDE sense, solution in local Sobolev spaces. The main result of the paper is a proof of the Large Deviations Principle for solutions in the case of vanishing noise.
