In this paper we examine the numerical approximation of the limiting invariant measure associated with Feynman-Kac formulae. These are expressed in a discrete time formulation and are associated with a Markov chain and a potential function.…
Under multiplicative drift and other regularity conditions, it is established that the asymptotic variance associated with a particle filter approximation of the prediction filter is bounded uniformly in time, and the nonasymptotic,…
This paper establishes a Feynman-Kac formula to represent the solution to general time inhomogeneous stochastic parabolic partial differential equations driven by multiplicative fractional Gaussian noises in bounded domain where L_t is a…
In the following article we consider the time-stability associated to the sequential Monte Carlo (SMC) estimate of the backward interpretation of Feynman-Kac Formulae. This is particularly of interest in the context of performing smoothing…
Probabilistic solutions of the so called Schr\"{o}dinger boundary data problem provide for a unique Markovian interpolation between any two strictly positive probability densities designed to form the input-output statistics data for the…
Sequential and quantum Monte Carlo methods, as well as genetic type search algorithms can be interpreted as a mean field and interacting particle approximations of Feynman-Kac models in distribution spaces. The performance of these…
This paper deals with the numerical approximation of normalizing constants produced by particle methods, in the general framework of Feynman-Kac sequences of measures. It is well-known that the corresponding estimates satisfy a central…
The paper studies an improved estimate for the rate of convergence for nonlinear homogeneous discrete-time Markov chains. These processes are nonlinear in terms of the distribution law. Hence, the transition kernels are dependent on the…
The approximation of fixed points by numerical fixed points was presented in the elegant monograph of Krasnosel'skii et al. (1972). The theory, both in its formulation and implementation, requires a differential operator calculus, so that…
The asymptotic variance is an important criterion to evaluate the performance of Markov chains, especially for the central limit theorems. We give the variational formulas for the asymptotic variance of discrete-time (non-reversible) Markov…
We design a particle interpretation of Feynman-Kac measures on path spaces based on a backward Markovian representation combined with a traditional mean field particle interpretation of the flow of their final time marginals. In contrast to…
Let $\mathscr{P}(E)$ be the space of probability measures on a measurable space $(E,\mathcal{E})$. In this paper we introduce a class of nonlinear Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) methods for simulating from a probability measure…
We study convergence in variation of probability solutions of nonlinear Fokker-Planck-Kolmogorov equations to stationary solutions. We obtain sufficient conditions for the exponential convergence of solutions to the stationary solution in…
We provide a generic way of deducing non-asymptotic error bounds for Sequential MCMC methods from suitable stability properties of Feynman-Kac propagators. We show how to derive this type of stability from mixing conditions for the MCMC…
The Carleman linearization is one of the mainstream approaches to lift a finite-dimensional nonlinear dynamical system into an infinite-dimensional linear system with the promise of providing accurate approximations of the original…
We study time-inhomogeneous Markov chains to obtain quantitative results on their asymptotic behavior. We use Poincar\'e, Nash, and logarithmic-Sobolev inequalities. We assume that our Markov chain admits a finite invariant measure at each…
The elastic field around a crack opening is known to be described by continuum linearised elasticity in leading order. In this work, we explicitly develop the next term in the atomistic asymptotic expansion in the case of a Mode III crack…
We study the limit behaviour of a generally non-linear ordinary differential equation whose solution is a superadditive generalisation of a stochastic matrix, and provide necessary and sufficient conditions for this solution to be ergodic,…
We prove a version of the Feynman-Kac formula for Levy processes and integro-differential operators, with application to the momentum representation of suitable quantum (Euclidean) systems whose Hamiltonians involve L\'{e}vy-type…
We study mean-field particle approximations of normalized Feynman-Kac semi-groups, usually called Fleming-Viot or Feynman-Kac particle systems. Assuming various large time stability properties of the semi-group uniformly in the initial…
