Entropic Dynamics is a framework in which dynamical laws such as those that arise in physics are derived as an application of entropic methods of inference. No underlying action principle is postulated. Instead, the dynamics is driven by…

Diffusion-driven flow is a boundary layer flow arising from the interplay of gravity and diffusion in density-stratified fluids when a gravitational field is non-parallel to an impermeable solid boundary. This study investigates…
We consider a Stokes flow coupled with advective-diffusive transport in an evolving domain with boundary conditions allowing for inflow and outflow. The evolution of the domain is induced by the transport process, leading to a fully coupled…
We consider the evolution of an incompressible two-dimensional perfect fluid as the boundary of its domain is deformed in a prescribed fashion. The flow is taken to be initially steady, and the boundary deformation is assumed to be slow…
The flow of fluid confined between a heated rotating cylinder and a cooled stationary cylinder is a canonical experiment for the study of heat transfer in engineering. The theoretical treatment of this system is greatly simplified if the…
For a manifold-with-boundary moving by mean curvature flow, the entropy at a later time is bounded by the entropy at an earlier time plus a boundary term. This paper controls the boundary term in a geometrically natural way. In particular,…
The traveling waves for surface diffusion of plane curves are studied. We consider an evolving plane curve with two endpoints, which can move freely on the x-axis with generating constant contact angles. For the evolution of this plane…
In this paper we analyze the transport of passive tracers by deterministic stationary incompressible flows which can be decomposed over an infinite number of spatial scales without separation between them. It appears that a low order…

Modeling distributions on Riemannian manifolds is a crucial component in understanding non-Euclidean data that arises, e.g., in physics and geology. The budding approaches in this space are limited by representational and computational…
In this paper, we study systems of time-invariant ordinary differential equations whose flows are non-expansive with respect to a norm, meaning that the distance between solutions may not increase. Since non-expansiveness (and…
In this paper, we establish a regularity theory for the optimal transport problem when the target is composed of two disjoint convex domains. This is an important model in which singularities arise. Even though the singular set does not…
We study the estimation of optimal transport (OT) maps between an arbitrary source probability measure and a log-concave target probability measure. Our contributions are twofold. First, we propose a new evolution equation in the set of…
