In this paper we look at the properties of limits of a sequence of real valued time inhomogeneous diffusions. When convergence is only in the sense of finite-dimensional distributions then the limit does not have to be a diffusion. However,…
We analyze the Wasserstein distance ($W$-distance) between two probability distributions associated with two multidimensional jump-diffusion processes. Specifically, we analyze a temporally decoupled squared $W_2$-distance, which provides…

We construct a recurrent diffusion process with values in the space of probability measures over an arbitrary closed Riemannian manifold of dimension $d\ge 2$. The process is associated with the Dirichlet form defined by integration of the…
The behavior of slow-fast diffusions as the separation of scale diverges is a well-studied problem in the literature. In this short paper, we revisit this problem and obtain a new proof of existing strong quantitative convergence estimates…
When propagating uncertainty in the data of differential equations, the probability laws describing the uncertainty are typically themselves subject to uncertainty. We present a sensitivity analysis of uncertainty propagation for…
To study diffusion processes on the p-Wasserstein space $\mathscr P_p$ for $p\in [1,\infty)$ over a separable, reflexive Banach space $X$, we present a criterion on the quasi-regularity of Dirichlet forms in $L^2(\mathscr P_p,\Lambda)$ for…

The object of study in this paper is the expected $2$-Wasserstein distance between the empirical measures of several point processes and their respective limit. For this, the main tool developed is a smoothing procedure in Euclidean spaces…
We study fluctuations of small noise multiscale diffusions around their homogenized deterministic limit. We derive quantitative rates of convergence of the fluctuation processes to their Gaussian limits in the appropriate Wasserstein metric…
The aim of this paper is two-fold: First, we obtain a better understanding of the intrinsic distance of diffusion processes. Precisely, (i) for all $n\ge1$, the diffusion matrix $A$ is weak upper semicontinuous on $\Omega$ if and only if…
This paper studies convergence behavior of latent mixing measures that arise in finite and infinite mixture models, using transportation distances (i.e., Wasserstein metrics). The relationship between Wasserstein distances on the space of…

We investigate a Poisson-Nernst-Planck type system in three spatial dimensions where the strength of the electric drift depends on a possibly small parameter and the particles are assumed to diffuse quadratically. On grounds of the global…
