We consider first passage percolation with identical and independent weight distributions. In this paper, we study the upper tail large deviations under a tail assumption on the distribution. We prove that the corresponding rate function is described by the so-​called discrete p-​Capacity, and we study its asymptotic. The talk is based on joint work with Clement Cosco.
