Distributed stochastic optimization intertwines (i) stochastic gradient noise, (ii) communication compression, and (iii) adaptive/normalized updates. While each factor has been studied in isolation, their joint effect under realistic…

In this paper, we study well-posedness of random periodic solutions of stochastic differential equations (SDEs) of McKean-Vlasov type driven by a two-sided Brownian motion, where the random periodic behaviour is characterised by the…

Fluctuations of nonequilibrium localized waves are shaped not only by direct stochastic forcing but also by deterministic transfer among coupled collective degrees of freedom. We develop a pathway-resolved stochastic collective-coordinate…

In this paper we focus on nonlinear SPDEs with singularities included in both drift and noise coefficients, for which the Gelfand-triple argument developed for (local) monotone SPDEs turns out to be invalid. We propose a general framework…
