We outline a reduction scheme for a class of Brownian dynamics which leads to meaningful corrections to the Smoluchowski equation in the overdamped regime. The mobility coefficient of the reduced dynamics is obtained by exploiting the…

In this note, we establish that the stationary distribution of a possibly non-equilibrium Langevin diffusion converges, as the damping parameter goes to infinity (or equivalently in the Smoluchowski-Kramers vanishing mass limit), toward a…

We study the estimation of the value function for continuous-time Markov diffusion processes using a single, discretely observed ergodic trajectory. Our work provides non-asymptotic statistical guarantees for the least-squares…

In this paper we discuss a stochastic analog of Aubry-Mather theory in which a deterministic control problem is replaced by a controlled diffusion. We prove the existence of a minimizing measure (Mather measure) and discuss its main…

This study in centered on models accounting for stochastic deformations of sample paths of random walks, embedded either in $\mathbb{Z}^2$ or in $\mathbb{Z}^3$. These models are immersed in multi-type particle systems with exclusion.…

We consider two methods to establish log-Sobolev inequalities for the invariant measure of a diffusion process when its density is not explicit and the curvature is not positive everywhere. In the first approach, based on the Holley-Stroock…

We consider stochastic control with discretionary stopping for the drift of a diffusion process over an infinite time horizon. The objective is to choose a control process and a stopping time to minimize the expectation of a convex terminal…

Considering Langevin dynamics we derive the general form of the stochastic differential that satisfies the Gallavotti-Cohen symmetry. This extends the work previously done by Kurchan, and Lebowitz and Spohn on such systems, and we treat…

This paper deals with the problems of stochastic stability and sliding mode control for a class of continuous-time Markovian jump systems with mode-dependent time-varying delays and partly unknown transition probabilities. The design method…

We introduce a constructive framework to learn effective Langevin equations from stationary time series. Unlike conventional approaches that require iterative calibration to match target statistics, our construction guarantees the observed…

The solution of the Langevin equation of an anisotropic fluid [Colmenares P. J; L\'opez F. and Olivares-Rivas W., Phys. Rev E. 2009, 80061123] allowed the evaluation of the position dependent perpendicular and parallel diffusion…

In this paper, we prove pathwise uniqueness for stochastic systems of McKean-Vlasov type with singular drift, even in the measure argument, and uniformly non-degenerate Lipschitz diffusion matrix. Our proof is based on Zvonkin's…

The Sobolev regularity of invariant measures for diffusion processes is proved on non-smooth metric measure spaces with synthetic lower Ricci curvature bounds. As an application, the symmetrizability of semigroups is characterized, and the…

Pathwise uniqueness for multi-dimensional stochastic McKean--Vlasov equation is established under moderate regularity conditions on the drift and diffusion coefficients. Both drift and diffusion depend on the marginal measure of the…

Motivated in part by a problem in simulated tempering (a form of Markov chain Monte Carlo) we seek to minimise, in a suitable sense, the time it takes a (regular) diffusion with instantaneous reflection at 0 and 1 to travel to $1$ and then…

The time variation of entropy, as an alternative to the variance, is proposed as a measure of the diffusion rate. It is shown that for linear and time-translationally invariant systems having a large-time limit for the density, at large…
