We explore a new research direction in Bayesian variational inference with discrete latent variable priors where we exploit Kronecker matrix algebra for efficient and exact computations of the evidence lower bound (ELBO). The proposed…

Motivated by the normal form of a fast-slow ordinary differential equation exhibiting a pitchfork singularity we consider the discrete-time dynamical system that is obtained by an application of the explicit Euler method. Tracking…

Numerical methods that preserve geometric invariants of the system, such as energy, momentum or the symplectic form, are called geometric integrators. Variational integrators are an important class of geometric integrators. The general idea…

We introduce vertex block descent, a block coordinate descent solution for the variational form of implicit Euler through vertex-level Gauss-Seidel iterations. It operates with local vertex position updates that achieve reductions in global…

We consider Lagrangians in Hamilton's principle defined on the tangent space $TG$ of a Lie group $G$. Invariance of such a Lagrangian under the action of $G$ leads to the symmetry-reduced Euler-Lagrange equations called the Euler-Poincar\'e…

A variational method is used to derive a self-consistent macro-particle model for relativistic electromagnetic kinetic plasma simulations. Extending earlier work [E. G. Evstatiev and B. A. Shadwick, J. Comput. Phys., vol. 245, pp. 376-398,…

The Euler scheme is one of the standard schemes to obtain numerical approximations of stochastic differential equations (SDEs). Its convergence properties are well-known in the case of globally Lipschitz continuous coefficients. However, in…

Critical points of energy functionals, which are of broad interest, for instance, in physics and chemistry, in solid and quantum mechanics, in material science, or in general diffusion-reaction models arise as solutions to the associated…

We develop in this paper a new framework for discrete calculus of variations when the actions have densities involving an arbitrary discretization operator. We deduce the discrete Euler-Lagrange equations for piecewise continuous critical…

This paper presents a new method to approximate the time-dependent convection-diffusion equations using conforming finite element methods, ensuring that the discrete solution respects the physical bounds imposed by the differential…

We study thermodynamical formalism of a discrete nonautonomous dynamical system determined by a sequence of continuous self-maps of a compact metric space. Using the methods of Convex Analysis we get variational principles for pressure…

In this work we introduce a topological method for the search of fixed points and periodic points for continuous maps defined on generalized rectangles in finite dimensional Euclidean spaces. We name our technique "Stretching Along the…

In this paper, we study the stability of various difference approximations of the Euler-Korteweg equations. This system of evolution PDEs is a classical isentropic Euler system perturbed by a dispersive (third order) term. The Euler…

Causal variational principles, which are the analytic core of the physical theory of causal fermion systems, are found to have an underlying Hamiltonian structure, giving a formulation of the dynamics in terms of physical fields in…

We develop the equations of motion for full body models that describe the dynamics of rigid bodies, acting under their mutual gravity. The equations are derived using a variational approach where variations are defined on the Lie group of…

We use the theory of cubic structures to give a fixed point Riemann-Roch formula for the equivariant Euler characteristics of coherent sheaves on projective flat schemes over Z with a tame action of a finite abelian group. This formula…

In this paper, we propose Lagrangian Gaussian Processes (LGPs) for probabilistic and data-efficient learning of dynamics via discrete forced Euler-Lagrange equations. Importantly, the geometric structure of the Lagrange-d'Alembert…

The classical method for deriving the macroscopic dynamics of a lattice Boltzmann system is to use a combination of different approximations and expansions. Usually a Chapman-Enskog analysis is performed, either on the continuous Boltzmann…

Entropic Dynamics (ED) is a framework for constructing dynamical theories of inference using the tools of inductive reasoning. A central feature of the ED framework is the special focus placed on time. In previous work a global entropic…

A mathematical model for the poroelastic materials (PEM) with the variable volume is developed in multidimensional case. Governing equations of the model are constructed using the continuity equations, which reflect the well-known physical…
