The hysteretic behavior of many-particle systems with non-convex free energy can be modeled by nonlocal Fokker-Planck equations that involve two small parameters and are driven by a time- dependent constraint. In this paper we consider the…

We introduce a kind of "perturbation" for the Li-Keiper coefficients around the Koebe function (the K function) and establish a closed system of Equations for the Li-Keiper coefficients. We then check the correctness of some of the many…

In this note, we establish that the stationary distribution of a possibly non-equilibrium Langevin diffusion converges, as the damping parameter goes to infinity (or equivalently in the Smoluchowski-Kramers vanishing mass limit), toward a…

How can we learn the laws underlying the dynamics of stochastic systems when their trajectories are sampled sparsely in time? Existing methods either require temporally resolved high-frequency observations, or rely on geometric arguments…

We analyze the low temperature asymptotics of the quasi-stationary distribution associated with the overdamped Langevin dynamics (a.k.a. the Einstein-Smoluchowski diffusion equation) in a bounded domain. This analysis is useful to…
