We consider overdamped Langevin dynamics for the attractive log gas on the torus $\mathbb{T}^\mathsf{d}$, for $\mathsf{d}\geq 1$. In dimension $\mathsf{d}=2$, this model coincides with a periodic version of the parabolic-elliptic…

We introduce a notion of uniform convergence for local and nonlocal curvatures. Then, we propose an abstract method to prove the convergence of the corresponding geometric flows, within the level set formulation. We apply such a general…

Non-linear versions of log-Sobolev inequalities, that link a free energy to its dissipation along the corresponding Wasserstein gradient flow (i.e. corresponds to Polyak-Lojasiewicz inequalities in this context), are known to provide global…
We consider a system of $N$ particles interacting through their empirical distribution on a finite state space in continuous time. In the formal limit as $N\to\infty$, the system takes the form of a nonlinear (McKean--Vlasov) Markov chain.…
The collective oscillations of 1D repulsive Bose gas with external harmonic confinement in two different regimes are studied. The first regime is the mean field regime when the density is high. The second regime is the Tonks-Girardeau…

We present a discretization-free scalable framework for solving a large class of mass-conserving partial differential equations (PDEs), including the time-dependent Fokker-Planck equation and the Wasserstein gradient flow. The main…
We consider a fitness-driven model of dispersal of $N$ interacting populations, which was previously studied merely in the case $N=1$. Based on some optimal transport distance recently introduced, we identify the model as a gradient flow in…
We show, for a class of discrete Fleming-Viot (or Moran) type particle systems, that the convergence to the equilibrium is exponential for a suitable Wassertein coupling distance. The approach provides an explicit quantitative estimate on…

One of the most popular approaches for solving total variation-regularized optimization problems in the space of measures are Particle Gradient Flows (PGFs). These restrict the problem to linear combinations of Dirac deltas and then perform…
Certain aspects of the mean-field theory of turbulent passive scalar transport and of mean-field electrodynamics are considered with particular emphasis on aspects of compressible fluids. It is demonstrated that the total mean-field…
