We consider a nonlinear control system depending on two controls u and v, with dynamics affine in the (unbounded) derivative of u, and v appearing initially only in the drift term. Recently, motivated by applications to optimization…

We consider several modifications of the Euler system of fluid dynamics including its pressureless variant driven by non-local interaction repulsive-attractive and alignment forces in the space dimension $N=2,3$. These models arise in the…

Given two probability measures on sequential data, we investigate the transport problem with time-inconsistent preferences in a discrete-time setting. Motivating examples are nonlinear objectives, state-dependent costs, and regularized…

We study the quantitative convergence of drift-diffusion PDEs that arise as Wasserstein gradient flows of linearly convex functions over the space of probability measures on ${\mathbb R}^d$. In this setting, the objective is in general not…

The numerical analysis for the small amplitude motion of an elastic beam with internal damping is investigated in domain with moving ends. An efficient numerical method is constructed to solve this moving boundary problem. The stability and…

This paper investigates the optimal control problem for a class of nonlinear fully coupled forward-backward stochastic difference equations (FBS$\Delta$Es). Under the convexity assumption of the control domain, we establish a variational…

In a previous work [8], it was shown that the joint law of a diffusion process and the running supremum of its first component is absolutely continuous, and that its density satisfies a non standard weak partial differential equation (PDE).…

The behaviour of multi-agent learning in competitive settings is often considered under the restrictive assumption of a zero-sum game. Only under this strict requirement is the behaviour of learning well understood; beyond this, learning…

The user equilibrium in traffic assignment problem is based on the fact that travelers choose the minimum-cost path between every origin-destination pair and on the assumption that such a behavior will lead to an equilibrium of the traffic…

Quasar convexity is a condition that allows some first-order methods to efficiently minimize a function even when the optimization landscape is non-convex. Previous works develop near-optimal accelerated algorithms for minimizing this class…

The uniqueness of equilibrium for a compressible, hyperelastic body subject to dead-load boundary conditions is considered. It is shown, for both the displacement and mixed problems, that there cannot be two solutions of the equilibrium…

Consider a real line equipped with a (not necessarily intrinsic) distance. We deal with the minimum-weight perfect matching problem for a complete graph whose points are located on the line and whose edges have weights equal to distances…

We prove discrete-to-continuum convergence for dynamical optimal transport on $\mathbb{Z}^d$-periodic graphs with energy density having linear growth at infinity. This result provides an answer to a problem left open by Gladbach, Kopfer,…

Convergence to equilibrium of underdamped Langevin dynamics is studied under general assumptions on the potential $U$ allowing for singularities. By modifying the direct approach to convergence in $L^2$ pioneered by F. H\'erau and…

We consider an optimal transport problem with backward martingale constraint. The objective function is given by the scalar product of a pseudo-Euclidean space $S$. We show that the supremums over maps and plans coincide, provided that the…

We consider discrete dynamical systems of "ant-like" agents engaged in a sequence of pursuits on a graph environment. The agents emerge one by one at equal time intervals from a source vertex $s$ and pursue each other by greedily attempting…

This paper shows that the solutions to various convex $\ell_1$ minimization problems are \emph{unique} if and only if a common set of conditions are satisfied. This result applies broadly to the basis pursuit model, basis pursuit denoising…

We consider the problem of finding the minimizer of a convex function $F: \mathbb R^d \rightarrow \mathbb R$ of the form $F(w) := \sum_{i=1}^n f_i(w) + R(w)$ where a low-rank factorization of $\nabla^2 f_i(w)$ is readily available. We…

We first study the fast minimization properties of the trajectories of the second-order evolution equation $$\ddot{x}(t) + \frac{\alpha}{t} \dot{x}(t) + \beta \nabla^2 \Phi (x(t))\dot{x} (t) + \nabla \Phi (x(t)) = 0,$$ where $\Phi:\mathcal…

In this paper, we establish new quantitative convergence bounds for a class of functional autoregressive models in weighted total variation metrics. To derive our results, we show that under mild assumptions, explicit minorization and…
