We study the problem of sampling from a distribution $p^*(x) \propto \exp\left(-U(x)\right)$, where the function $U$ is $L$-smooth everywhere and $m$-strongly convex outside a ball of radius $R$, but potentially nonconvex inside this ball.…

Stochastic differential equations provide a powerful tool for modelling dynamic phenomena affected by random noise. In case of repeated observations of time series for several experimental units, it is often the case that some of the…

The translational motion of anisotropic or self-propelled colloidal particles is closely linked with the particle's orientation and its rotational Brownian motion. In the overdamped limit, the stochastic evolution of the orientation vector…

We study the Brownian motion on the non-compact Grassmann manifold $\frac{\mathbf{U}(n-k,k)} {\mathbf{U}(n-k)\mathbf{U}(k)}$ and some of its functionals. The key point is to realize this Brownian motion as a matrix diffusion process, use…
