Discretizations of Langevin diffusions provide a powerful method for sampling and Bayesian inference. However, such discretizations require evaluation of the gradient of the potential function. In several real-world scenarios, obtaining…
In this paper we introduce and analyse Langevin samplers that consist of perturbations of the standard underdamped Langevin dynamics. The perturbed dynamics is such that its invariant measure is the same as that of the unperturbed dynamics.…

Occupied diffusions offer a Markovian framework for path-dependent dynamics by lifting the state space with a flow of occupation measures. Because this additional feature is infinite-dimensional, the simulation of these processes remains…
The random splitting Langevin Monte Carlo could mitigate the first order bias in Langevin Monte Carlo with little extra work compared other high order schemes. We develop in this work an analysis framework for the sampling error under…
