Functional It^o calculus is based on an extension of the classical It^o calculus to functionals depending on the entire past evolution of the underlying paths and not only on its current value. The calculus builds on Follmer's…

For a discrete function $f\left( x\right) $ on a discrete set, the finite difference can be either forward and backward. However, we observe that if $ f\left( x\right) $ is a sum of two functions $f\left( x\right) =f_{1}\left( x\right)…

Hamiltonian Monte Carlo (HMC) has emerged as a powerful Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) method to sample from complex continuous distributions. However, a fundamental limitation of HMC is that it can not be applied to distributions with…
