Abstract
We prove a large deviation principle for the finite dimensional marginals of the Gibbs distribution of the macroscopic "overlap"-parameters in the Hopfield model in the case where the number of random "patterns", M, as a function of the system size N satisfies lim sup M(N)/N = 0. In this case the rate function is independent of the disorder for almost all realizations of the patterns.
