Consider the Totally Asymmetric Simple Exclusion Process (TASEP) on the integer lattice ℤ . We study the functional Large Deviations of the integrated current h(t,x) under the hyperbolic scaling of space and time by N , i.e., hN(t,ξ) := (1)/(N)h(Nt,Nξ) . As hinted by the asymmetry in the upper- and lower-tail large deviations of the exponential Last Passage Percolation, the TASEP exhibits two types of deviations. One type of deviations occur with probability exp(-O(N)) , referred to as speed- N ; while the other with probability exp(-O(N2)) , referred to as speed- N2 . In this work we study the speed- N2 functional LDP of the TASEP, and establishes (non-matching) large deviation upper and lower bounds.
