Small deviation conjecture for geodesics in semi-discrete Brownian last passage percolation

Let {Bi()}iZ\{B_i(\cdot)\}_{i\in\mathbb{Z}} be a sequence of two-sided standard Brownian motions on R\mathbb{R}, and let Πn\Pi_n be the almost surely unique geodesic from (0,0)(0,0) to (n,n)(n,n) in semi-discrete Brownian last passage percolation. For s(0,1)s\in(0,1), write Πn(ns)\Pi_n(ns) for the spatial coordinate of the geodesic at longitudinal parameter nsns. Brownian geodesic small deviation conjecture. There exists δ0>0\delta_0>0 and positive constants C1,c1,C2,c2C_1,c_1,C_2,c_2 such that, for all 0<δ<δ00<\delta<\delta_0 and all sufficiently large nn depending on δ\delta,

C2ec2δ3/2P(sups(0,1)n2/3Πn(ns)nsδ)C1ec1δ3/2.C_2e^{-c_2\delta^{-3/2}}\leq \mathbb{P}\left(\sup_{s\in(0,1)}n^{-2/3}|\Pi_n(ns)-ns|\leq\delta\right)\leq C_1e^{-c_1\delta^{-3/2}}.

This is proposed as the Brownian last-passage-percolation analogue of the corresponding small-deviation estimate, motivated by the curvature of the limit shape and one-point moderate-deviation estimates; the parallelogram estimates needed for a proof had not been established in the cited literature.
