The equality between dissipation and energy drop is a structural property of gradient-flow dynamics. The classical implicit Euler scheme fails to reproduce this equality at the discrete level. We discuss two modifications of the Euler…

Consider $n$ points $x_1,\ldots,x_n$ in finite-dimensional euclidean space, each having one of two colors. Suppose there exists a separating hyperplane (identified with its unit normal vector $w)$ for the points, i.e a hyperplane such that…

We offer a new point of view on the (Modified) Log-Sobolev inequality and lower bounds on the Ricci-curvature in the setting where the dynamics are obtained as the limit of Markov processes. In this setting, the large deviation rate…

We consider uniformly rotating incompressible Euler and Navier-Stokes equations. We study the suppression of vertical gradients of Lagrangian displacement ("vertical" refers to the direction of the rotation axis). We employ a formalism that…

Since the early nineties, it has been observed that the Schroedinger bridge problem can be formulated as a stochastic control problem with atypical boundary constraints. This in turn has a fluid dynamic counterpart where the flow of…

We perform a convergence analysis of a discrete-in-time minimization scheme approximating a finite dimensional singularly perturbed gradient flow. We allow for different scalings between the viscosity parameter $\varepsilon$ and the time…

A nonlinear parabolic equation of sixth order is analyzed. The equation arises as a reduction of a model from quantum statistical mechanics, and also as the gradient flow of a second-order information functional with respect to the…

The nonlinear stability of Minkowski spacetime has been one of the central achievements in the mathematical theory of general relativity and, more broadly, in the analysis of nonlinear geometric wave equations. Since the seminal work of…

It is easy to reason that gravity might be the effect of a fluid in disguise, as it will naturally arise in emergent gravity models where gravity is due to the effect of some fundamental particles, with the latter expected to behave…

Entropy of categorical dynamics is defined by Dmitrov-Haiden-Katzarkov-Kontsevich. Motivated by the fundamental theorem of the topological entropy due to Gromov-Yomdin, it is natural to ask an equality between the entropy and the spectral…

This paper proposes and develops new linesearch methods with inexact gradient information for finding stationary points of nonconvex continuously differentiable functions on finite-dimensional spaces. Some abstract convergence results for a…

In this paper, we study the linear stability properties of perturbations around the homogeneous Couette flow for a 2D isentropic compressible fluid in the domain $\mathbb{T}\times \mathbb{R}$. In the inviscid case there is a generic…

We show that the spatially homogeneous Boltzmann equation evolves as the gradient flow of the entropy with respect to a suitable geometry on the space of probability measures which takes the collision process into account. This gradient…

In this paper, we present a new strategy to prove the convergence of deep learning architectures to a zero training (or even testing) loss by gradient flow. Our analysis is centered on the notion of Rayleigh quotients in order to prove…

We study the temporal dissipation of variance and relative entropy for ergodic Markov Chains in continuous time, and compute explicitly the corresponding dissipation rates. These are identified, as is well known, in the case of the variance…

This paper presents different approaches, based on functional inequalities, to study the speed of convergence in total variation distance of ergodic diffusion processes with initial law satisfying a given integrability condition. To this…

We consider a new functional inequality controlling the rate of relative entropy decay for random walks, the interchange process and more general block-type dynamics for permutations. The inequality lies between the classical logarithmic…

A new kinetic model is proposed where the equilibrium distribution with bounded support has a range of velocities about two average velocities in 1D. In 2D, the equilibrium distribution function has a range of velocities about four average…

We establish the gradient flow representation of diffusion with mobility $b$ with respect to the modified Wasserstein quasi-metric $W_h$, where $h(r)=rb(r)$. The appropriate selection of the free energy functional depends on the specific…

New criteria for energy stability of multi-step, multi-stage, and mixed schemes are introduced in the context of evolution equations that arise as gradient flow with respect to a metric. These criteria are used to exhibit second and third…
