초록

This paper extends the results of Ellis and Rosen (1982 a) to some more general integrals and applies our main theorem to compute the specific free energy of some models in statistical mechanics. The general integrals of this paper mean the integrals with respect to the probability measures induced by the sample mean of n i.i.d. random variables taking values in a separable Banach space.
