We solve the Skorokhod embedding problem (SEP) for a general time-homogeneous diffusion $X$: given a distribution $\rho$, we construct a stopping time $\tau$ such that the stopped process $X_{\tau}$ has the distribution $\rho$. Our solution…
Score-based diffusion models learn to reverse a stochastic differential equation that maps data to noise. However, for complex tasks, numerical error can compound and result in highly unnatural samples. Previous work mitigates this drift…

The study of both sensitivity analysis and differentiability of the stochastic flow of a reflected process in a convex polyhedral domain is challenging because the dynamics are discontinuous at the boundary of the domain and the boundary of…
In this work, we introduce a new Skorokhod problem with two reflecting barriers when the trajectories of the driven process and the barriers are right and left limited. We show that this problem has an explicit unique solution in a…
We construct diffusions with values in the nonnegative orthant, normal reflection along each of the axes, and two pairs of local drift/variance characteristics assigned according to rank; one of the variances is allowed to vanish, but not…

Two frameworks that have been used to characterize reflected diffusions include stochastic differential equations with reflection and the so-called submartingale problem. We introduce a general formulation of the submartingale problem for…
Deep generative models have emerged as state-of-the-art for solving inverse problems, but applying them to inverse problems for PDEs, like electrical impedance tomography (EIT) remains challenging. Because physical domains are naturally…
There is a natural connection between the class of diffusions, and a certain class of solutions to the Skorokhod Embedding Problem (SEP). We show that the important concept of minimality in the SEP leads to the new and useful concept of a…
We solve the Skorokhod embedding problem for a class of stochastic processes satisfying an inhomogeneous stochastic differential equation (SDE) of the form $d A_t =\mu (t, A_t) d t + \sigma(t, A_t) d W_t$. We provide sufficient conditions…
The Skorokhod Embedding Problem (SEP) is one of the classical problems in the study of stochastic processes, with applications in many different fields (cf.~ the surveys \cite{Ob04,Ho11}). Many of these applications have natural…

Analysis with the characteristic functional of stochastic motion is used for the gradient spin echo measurement of restricted motion to clarify details of the diffraction-like effect in a porous structure. It gives the diffusive diffraction…

This paper is devoted to the study of reflected Stochastic Differential Equations when the constraint is not on the paths of the solution but acts on the law of the solution. These reflected equations have been introduced recently by…

Constrained Markov processes, such as reflecting diffusions, behave as an unconstrained process in the interior of a domain but upon reaching the boundary are controlled in some way so that they do not leave the closure of the domain. In…
