Wasserstein gradient flow provides a general framework for minimizing an energy functional $J$ over the space of probability measures on a Riemannian manifold $(M,g)$. Its canonical time-discretization, the Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto (JKO)…

Minimizing functionals in the space of probability distributions can be done with Wasserstein gradient flows. To solve them numerically, a possible approach is to rely on the Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto (JKO) scheme which is analogous to the…

We analyze the gradient flow of a potential energy in the space of probability measures when we substitute the optimal transport geometry with a geometry based on Sinkhorn divergences, a debiased version of entropic optimal transport. This…

We study Fokker--Planck equations with symmetric, positive definite mobility matrices capturing diffusion in heterogeneous environments. A weighted Wasserstein metric is introduced for which these equations are gradient flows. This metric…

Wasserstein gradient flows provide a powerful means of understanding and solving many diffusion equations. Specifically, Fokker-Planck equations, which model the diffusion of probability measures, can be understood as gradient descent over…

The Bregman-Wasserstein divergence is the optimal transport cost when the underlying cost function is given by a Bregman divergence, and arises naturally in fields such as statistics and machine learning. We establish fundamental properties…

In this work, we investigate a variational formulation for a time-fractional Fokker-Planck equation which arises in the study of complex physical systems involving anomalously slow diffusion. The model involves a fractional-order Caputo…

We develop novel neural network-based implicit particle methods to compute high-dimensional Wasserstein-type gradient flows with linear and nonlinear mobility functions. The main idea is to use the Lagrangian formulation in the…

The so-called JKO scheme, named after Jordan, Kinderlehrer and Otto, provides a variational way to construct discrete time approximations of certain partial differential equations (PDEs) appearing as gradient flows in the space of…

Gradient flows in the Wasserstein space have become a powerful tool in the analysis of diffusion equations, following the seminal work of Jordan, Kinderlehrer and Otto (JKO). The numerical applications of this formulation have been limited…

Combining the classical theory of optimal transport with modern operator splitting techniques, we develop a new numerical method for nonlinear, nonlocal partial differential equations, arising in models of porous media, materials science,…

We consider a class of time-fractional porous medium equations with nonlocal pressure. We show the existence of their weak solutions by proposing a JKO scheme for modified Wasserstein distance and a square fractional Sobolev norm. Moreover,…

The JKO scheme is a time-discrete scheme of implicit Euler type that allows to construct weak solutions of evolution PDEs which have a Wasserstein gradient structure. The purpose of this work is to study the effect of replacing the…

We propose a variational finite volume scheme to approximate the solutions to Wasserstein gradient flows. The time discretization is based on an implicit linearization of the Wasserstein distance expressed thanks to Benamou-Brenier formula,…

We present a method to efficiently compute Wasserstein gradient flows. Our approach is based on a generalization of the back-and-forth method (BFM) introduced by Jacobs and L\'eger to solve optimal transport problems. We evolve the gradient…

Wasserstein gradient flow has emerged as a promising approach to solve optimization problems over the space of probability distributions. A recent trend is to use the well-known JKO scheme in combination with input convex neural networks to…

We study a discretization in space and time for a class of nonlinear diffusion equations with flux limitation. That class contains the so-called relativistic heat equation, as well as other gradient flows of Renyi entropies with respect to…

We introduce a time discretization for Wasserstein gradient flows based on the classical Backward Differentiation Formula of order two. The main building block of the scheme is the notion of geodesic extrapolation in the Wasserstein space,…

This paper studies the convergence properties of the inexact Jordan-Kinderlehrer-Otto (JKO) scheme and proximal-gradient algorithm in the context of Wasserstein spaces. The JKO scheme, a widely-used method for approximating solutions to…

In this article we set up a splitting variant of the JKO scheme in order to handle gradient flows with respect to the Kantorovich-Fisher-Rao metric, recently introduced and defined on the space of positive Radon measure with varying masses.…
