Trend to equilibrium and particle approximation for a weakly selfconsistent Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation

François Bolley, Arnaud Guillin, Florent Malrieu (2010)

Similarity:

We consider a Vlasov-Fokker-Planck equation governing the evolution of the density of interacting and diffusive matter in the space of positions and velocities. We use a probabilistic interpretation to obtain convergence towards equilibrium in Wasserstein distance with an explicit exponential rate. We also prove a propagation of chaos property for an associated particle system, and give rates on the approximation of the solution by the particle system. Finally, a transportation ...

Stochastic Lagrangian method for downscaling problems in computational fluid dynamics

Frédéric Bernardin, Mireille Bossy, Claire Chauvin, Jean-François Jabir, Antoine Rousseau (2010)

Similarity:

This work aims at introducing modelling, theoretical and numerical studies related to a new downscaling technique applied to computational fluid dynamics. Our method consists in building a local model, forced by large scale information computed thanks to a classical numerical weather predictor. The local model, compatible with the Navier-Stokes equations, is used for the small scale computation (downscaling) of the considered fluid. It is inspired by Pope's works on turbulence, and...

Quantitative concentration inequalities on sample path space for mean field interaction

François Bolley (2010)

ESAIM: Probability and Statistics

Similarity:

We consider the approximation of a mean field stochastic process by a large interacting particle system. We derive non-asymptotic large deviation bounds measuring the concentration of the empirical measure of the paths of the particles around the law of the process. The method is based on a coupling argument, strong integrability estimates on the paths in Hölder norm, and a general concentration result for the empirical measure of identically distributed independent paths. ...
