We propose a new discretization of the mirror-Langevin diffusion and give a crisp proof of its convergence. Our analysis uses relative convexity/smoothness and self-concordance, ideas which originated in convex optimization, together with a…
The aim of this article is to construct solutions to second order in time stochastic partial differential equations and to show hypocoercivity of the corresponding transition semigroups. More generally, we analyze non-linear…
We study and develop multilevel methods for the numerical approximation of a log-concave probability $\pi$ on $\mathbb{R}^d$, based on (over-damped) Langevin diffusion. In the continuity of \cite{art:egeapanloup2021multilevel} concentrated…
This work is concerned with the development of a family of Galerkin finite element methods for the classical Kolmogorov's equation. Kolmogorov's equation serves as a sufficiently rich, for our purposes, model problem for kinetic-type…

We look at the equilibrium of a Brownian particle in an inhomogeneous space following the alternative approach proposed in ref.[1]. We consider a coordinate dependent damping that makes the stochastic dynamics the one with multiplicative…
We prove the consistency of Galerkin methods to solve Poisson equations where the differential operator under consideration is the generator of the Langevin dynamics. We show in particular how the hypocoercive nature of this operator can be…

We consider a generic modified logarithmic Sobolev inequality (mLSI) of the form $\mathrm{Ent}_{\mu}(e^f) \le \tfrac{\rho}{2} \mathbb{E}_\mu e^f \Gamma(f)^2$ for some difference operator $\Gamma$, and show how it implies two-level…
