We give a new proof, relying on polynomial inequalities and some aspects of potential theory, of large deviation results for ensembles of random hermitian matrices.

Nous donnons une démonstration nouvelle, s’appuyant sur des inégalités polynomiales et certains aspects de la théorie du potentiel, des résultats de grande déviation pour des ensembles de matrices hermitiennes aléatoires.
