Particle-based stochastic approximations of the Boltzmann equation are popular tools for simulations of non-equilibrium gas flows, for which the Navier-Stokes-Fourier equations fail to provide accurate description. However, these numerical…
We interpret a class of nonlinear Fokker-Planck equations with reaction as gradient flows over the space of Radon measures equipped with the recently introduced Hellinger-Kantorovich distance. The driving entropy of the gradient flow is not…
The classic pump scheduling or Optimal Water Flow (OWF) problem for water distribution networks (WDNs) minimizes the cost of power consumption for a given WDN over a fixed time horizon. In its exact form, the OWF is a computationally…
We analytically solve for the time dependent solutions of various density evolution models. With specific forms of the diffusion, drift and sink coefficients, the eigenfunctions can be expressed in terms of hypergeometric functions. We…
The theory of the dynamics of polymers in solution is developed coming from the hydrodynamic theory of the Brownian motion (BM) and the Rouse-Zimm (RZ) model. It is shown that the time correlation functions describing the polymer motion…
Interferometric inversion involves recovery of a signal from cross-correlations of its linear transformations. A close relative of interferometric inversion is the generalized phase retrieval problem, which consists of recovering a signal…
We investigate a system of Brownian particles weakly bound by attractive parity-symmetric potentials that grow at large distances as $V(x) \sim |x|^\alpha$, with $0 < \alpha < 1$. The probability density function $P(x,t)$ at long times…
A polymer in a turbulent flow undergoes the coil-stretch transition when the Weissenberg number, i.e. the product of the Lyapunov exponent of the flow and the relaxation time of the polymer, surpasses a critical value. The effect of…
We present a new time-dependent Density Functional approach to study the relaxational dynamics of an assembly of interacting particles subject to thermal noise. Starting from the Langevin stochastic equations of motion for the velocities of…
We present a general formalism able to derive the kinetic equations of polymer dynamics. It is based on the application of nonequilibrium thermodynamics to analyze the irreversible processes taking place in the conformational space of the…
We study the dynamics of polymer chains in a bath of self-propelled particles (SPP) by extensive Langevin dynamics simulations in a two dimensional system. Specifically, we analyse the polymer looping properties versus the SPP activity and…
The small noise cut-off phenomenon in continuous time and space has been studied in the recent literature for the linear and non-linear stable Langevin dynamics with additive L\'evy drivers - understood as abrupt thermalization of the…
We present and analyze a new generalized Frank-Wolfe method for the composite optimization problem $(P):{\min}_{x\in\mathbb{R}^n}\; f(\mathsf{A} x) + h(x)$, where $f$ is a $\theta$-logarithmically-homogeneous self-concordant barrier,…
We consider the effect of geometric confinement on the steady-state properties of a one-dimensional active suspension subject to thermal noise. The random active force is modeled by an Ornstein-Uhlenbeck process and the system is studied…
We theoretically study the conformational and dynamical properties of semiflexible active polar ring polymers under linear shear flow. A ring is described as a continuous Gaussian polymer with a tangential active force of a constant density…
The dynamics of loop formation by linear polymer chains has been a topic of several theoretical/experimental studies. Formation of loops and their opening are key processes in many important biological processes. Loop formation in flexible…
We introduce dynamical versions of loop (or Dyson-Schwinger) equations for large families of two--dimensional interacting particle systems, including Dyson Brownian motion, Nonintersecting Bernoulli/Poisson random walks, $\beta$--corners…
Researchers from different areas have independently defined extensions of the usual weak convergence of laws of stochastic processes with the goal of adequately accounting for the flow of information. Natural approaches are convergence of…
The direct simulation Monte Carlo (DSMC) method is widely used to describe rarefied gas flows. The DSMC method accounts for the transport and collisions of computational particles, resulting in higher computational costs in the continuum…
Continuous-time Markov chains associated to finite-volume discretization schemes of Fokker-Planck equations are constructed. Sufficient conditions under which quantitative exponential decay in the $\phi$-entropy and Wasserstein distance are…
