Signature inversion for monotone paths Academic Article uri icon

For every N, we sample a lattice path of N steps with weights given by the coefficient of the corresponding word in the signature. We show that these weights on lattice paths satisfy the large deviations principle. In particular, this implies that the probability of picking up a wrong path is exponentially small in N. The argument relies on a probabilistic interpretation of the signature for monotone paths.
