The space X in Section 2 is the space of all nitely additive, nonnegative, mass one
measures on E. Every element  in X has the following unique decomposition:
 = ac + s + p ;
where p is a pure nite additive measure, ac and s are both countably additive with
ac .0 ; s ⊥0 . A nonnegative nite additive measure is called pure nite additive if
there is no nonzero, nonnegative, countably additive measure that is less than it. An
element  in X is a probability measure if and only if p (E) = 0. Thus X is strictly

bigger than M1 (E) (even though every element of X can be associated to a continuous
linear functional on C([0; 1])). Thus, we need to change the space M1 (E) in Theorem
2:4 to X, and the rate function is given by

 H (0 |ac ) if .0 ;  6∈ M1 (E);
I () = H (0 |)
if .0 ;  ∈ M1 (E);


else:
Theorems 2:5 and 3:4 should be modi ed accordingly. All calculations about the in nite
dimensional LDP hold true for probability-valued paths.
We thank W. Stannat for pointing out the de ciency.
