We consider contractivity for diffusion semigroups w.r.t. Kantorovich ($L^1$ Wasserstein) distances based on appropriately chosen concave functions. These distances are inbetween total variation and usual Wasserstein distances. It is shown…

We study the particle method to approximate the gradient flow on the $L^p$-Wasserstein space. This method relies on the discretization of the energy introduced by [3] via nonoverlapping balls centered at the particles and preserves the…

We study the quantitative convergence of drift-diffusion PDEs that arise as Wasserstein gradient flows of linearly convex functions over the space of probability measures on ${\mathbb R}^d$. In this setting, the objective is in general not…

We deal with some extensions of the space-fractional diffusion equation, which is satisfied by the density of a stable process (see Mainardi, Luchko, Pagnini (2001)): the first equation considered here is obtained by adding an exponential…
Let $X:=(X_t)_{t\geq 0}$ be an ergodic Markov process on $\real^d$, and $p>0$. We derive upper bounds of the $p$-Wasserstein distance between the invariant measure and the empirical measures of the Markov process $X$. For this we assume,…
For a Markov semigroup $P_t$ with invariant probability measure $\mu$, a constant $\ll>0$ is called a lower bound of the ultra-exponential convergence rate of $P_t$ to $\mu$, if there exists a constant $C\in (0,\infty)$ such that $$…
Let $\sigma(u)$, $u\in \mathbb{R}$ be an ergodic stationary Markov chain, taking a finite number of values $a_1,...,a_m$, and $b(u)=g(\sigma(u))$, where $g$ is a bounded and measurable function. We consider the diffusion type process $$…
We consider a diffusion process $X$ in a random L\'{e}vy potential $\mathbb{V}$ which is a solution of the informal stochastic differential equation \begin{eqnarray*}\cases{dX_t=d\beta_t-{1/2}\mathbb{V}'(X_t) dt,\cr X_0=0,}\end{eqnarray*}…

Suppose that T_t is a symmetric diffusion semigroup on L^2(X) and consider its tensor product extension to the Bochner space L^p(X,B), where B belongs to a certain broad class of UMD spaces. We prove a vector-valued version of the…
Motivated by the problem of sampling from ill-conditioned log-concave distributions, we give a clean non-asymptotic convergence analysis of mirror-Langevin diffusions as introduced in Zhang et al. (2020). As a special case of this…

Motivated by the notion of isotropic $\alpha$-stable L\'evy processes confined, by reflections, to a bounded open Lipschitz set $D\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, we study some related analytical objects. Thus, we construct the corresponding…
Although an intimate relation between entropy and diffusion has been advocated for many years and even seems to have been verified in theory and experiments, a quantitatively reliable study, and any derivation of an algebraic relation…
