Excited that our work on combining statistical field theory of neural networks with large-deviation theory is now published in @PhysRevLett (open access): Was a great experience working on this with Tobias Kühn and Moritz Helias!.

We here unify the field-theoretical approach to neuronal networks with large deviations theory. For a prototypical random recurrent network model with continuous-valued units, we show that the...
