We consider a system of $N$ interacting particles, governed by transport and diffusion, that converges in a mean-field limit to the solution of a McKean-Vlasov equation. From the observation of a trajectory of the system over a fixed time…
As a counterpoint to classical stochastic particle methods for diffusion, we develop a deterministic particle method for linear and nonlinear diffusion. At first glance, deterministic particle methods are incompatible with diffusive partial…

A stochastic PDE, describing mesoscopic fluctuations in systems of weakly interacting inertial particles of finite volume, is proposed and analysed in any finite dimension $d\in\mathbb{N}$. It is a regularised and inertial version of the…
The well-posedness and regularity estimates in initial distributions are derived for singular McKean-Vlasov SDEs, where the drift contains a locally standard integrable term and a superlinear term in the spatial variable, and is Lipchitz…
We consider a particle moving in $d\geq 2$ dimensions, its velocity being a reversible diffusion process, with identity diffusion coefficient, of which the invariant measure behaves, roughly, like $(1+|v|)^{-\beta}$ as $|v|\to \infty$, for…
We study a class of non linear integro-differential equations on the Wasserstein space related to the optimal control of McKean--Vlasov jump-diffusions. We develop an intrinsic notion of viscosity solutions that does not rely on the lifting…
We investigate conditional McKean-Vlasov equations driven by time-space white noise, motivated by the propagation of chaos in an N-particle system with space-time Ornstein-Uhlenbeck dynamics. The framework builds on the stochastic calculus…
In this article, we establish a general formula for higher order linear functional derivatives for the composition of an arbitrary smooth functional on the 1-Wasserstein space with the solution of a Fokker-Planck PDE. This formula has…
We study the long-time dynamics of two-dimensional linear Fokker-Planck equations driven by a drift that can be decomposed in the sum of a large shear component and the gradient of a regular potential depending on one spatial variable. The…
We discuss diffusion of particles in a spatially inhomogeneous medium. From the microscopic viewpoint we consider independent particles randomly evolving on a lattice. We show that the reversibility condition has a discrete geometric…
In the context of non-convex optimization, we let the temperature of a Langevin diffusion to depend on the diffusion's own density function. The rationale is that the induced density captures to some extent the landscape imposed by the…
