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 ...

Existence, uniqueness and convergence of a particle approximation for the Adaptive Biasing Force process

Benjamin Jourdain, Tony Lelièvre, Raphaël Roux (2010)

ESAIM: Mathematical Modelling and Numerical Analysis

Similarity:

We study a free energy computation procedure, introduced in [Darve and Pohorille, (2001) 9169–9183; Hénin and Chipot, (2004) 2904–2914], which relies on the long-time behavior of a nonlinear stochastic differential equation. This nonlinearity comes from a conditional expectation computed with respect to one coordinate of the solution. The long-time convergence of the solutions to this equation has been proved in [Lelièvre , (2008)...
