Given any closed Riemannian manifold $M$, we construct a reversible diffusion process on the space ${\mathcal P}(M)$ of probability measures on $M$ that is (i) reversible w.r.t.~the entropic measure ${\mathbb P}^\beta$ on ${\mathcal P}(M)$,…

The asymptotic behaviour of empirical measures has plenty of studies. However, the research on conditional empirical measures is limited. Being the development of Wang \cite{eW1}, under the quadratic Wasserstein distance, we investigate the…

Von Renesse and the author (Ann. Prob. '09) developed a second order calculus on the Wasserstein space P([0,1]) of probability measures on the unit interval. The basic objects of interest had been Dirichlet form, semigroup and continuous…

Let $M$ be a connected compact Riemannian manifold possibly with a boundary, let $V\in C^2(M)$ such that $\mu(\d x):=\e^{V(x)}\d x$ is a probability measure, where $\d x$ is the volume measure, and let $L=\Delta+\nabla V$. The exact…

To study diffusion processes on the p-Wasserstein space $\mathscr P_p$ for $p\in [1,\infty)$ over a separable, reflexive Banach space $X$, we present a criterion on the quasi-regularity of Dirichlet forms in $L^2(\mathscr P_p,\Lambda)$ for…

Extending previous work [arXiv:1408.0628] by the first author we present a variant of the Arratia flow, which consists of a collection of coalescing Brownian motions starting from every point of the unit interval. The important new feature…

We construct a system of interacting two-sided Bessel processes on the unit interval and show that the associated empirical measure process converges to the Wasserstein Diffusion, assuming that Markov uniqueness holds for the generating…

The paper studies Dirichlet forms on the classical Wiener space and the Wiener space over non-compact complete Riemannian manifolds. The diffusion operator is almost everywhere an unbounded operator on the Cameron--Martin space. In…

Let $\mathbb P$ be any Borel probability measure on the $L^2$-Wasserstein space $(\mathscr{P}_2(M),W_2)$ over a closed Riemannian manifold $M$. We consider the Dirichlet form $\mathcal E$ induced by $\mathbb P$ and by the Wasserstein…

We prove a characterization of the Dirichlet-Ferguson measure over an arbitrary finite diffuse measure space. We provide an interpretation of this characterization in analogy with the Mecke identity for Poisson point processes.

We present a novel approximate inference method for diffusion processes, based on the Wasserstein gradient flow formulation of the diffusion. In this formulation, the time-dependent density of the diffusion is derived as the limit of…
