Existence, uniqueness and convergence of a particle approximation for the Adaptive Biasing Force process

Probability 2010-01-16 v2

Abstract

We prove existence and uniqueness for some nonlinear stochastic differential equation used in molecular dynamics, whose nonlinearity comes from a conditional expectation term. We also introduce an interacting particle system in order to approximate this conditional expectation, providing a discretization scheme for this equation.
