For a fixed flow-based generative model under a small inference budget, sample quality can depend strongly on where the sampler spends its few function evaluations. Flow matching and Schr\"odinger bridges define probability paths, yet their…

We present a collection of explicit diffusion approximations to small temperature Schr\"{o}dinger bridges on manifolds. Our most precise results are when both marginals are the same and the Schr\"{o}dinger bridge is on a manifold with a…
The goal of this paper is to define and study a notion of fractional Brownian motion on a Lie group. We define it as at the solution of a stochastic differential equation driven by a linear fractional Brownian motion. We show that this…
Instantaneous volatility of logarithmic return in the lognormal fractional SABR model is driven by the exponentiation of a correlated fractional Brownian motion. Due to the mixed nature of driving Brownian and fractional Brownian motions,…
