A number of researchers have independently introduced topologies on the set of laws of stochastic processes that extend the usual weak topology. Depending on the respective scientific background this was motivated by applications and…
Over the years a number of topologies for the set of laws of stochastic processes have been proposed. Building on the weak topology they all aim to capture more accurately the temporal structure of the processes. In a parallel paper we show…
The topology of weak convergence does not account for the growth of information over time that is captured in the filtration of an adapted stochastic process. For example, two adapted stochastic processes can have very similar laws but give…

We generalize various notions of stability of invariant sets of dynamical systems to invariant measures, by defining a topology on the set of measures. The defined topology is similar, but not topologically equivalent to weak* topology, and…

Loosely speaking, causal transport plans are a relaxation of adapted processes in the same sense as Kantorovich transport plans extend Monge-type transport maps. The corresponding causal version of the transport problem has recently been…
In this paper we report that notions of topological protection can be applied to stationary configurations that are driven far from equilibrium by active, dissipative processes. We show this for physically two disparate cases : stochastic…
Many distributed optimization algorithms achieve existentially-optimal running times, meaning that there exists some pathological worst-case topology on which no algorithm can do better. Still, most networks of interest allow for…
We consider the bicausal optimal transport problem between the laws of scalar time-homogeneous stochastic differential equations, and we establish the optimality of the synchronous coupling between these laws. The proof of this result is…
We present an analysis of the topologies of a class of networks which are optimal in terms of the requirements of having as short a route as possible between any two nodes while yet keeping the congestion in the network as low as possible.…
Topological data analysis is a powerful tool for describing topological signatures in real world data. An important challenge in topological data analysis is matching significant topological signals across distinct systems. In geometry and…
