We consider the solution to a stochastic differential equation with a drift function which depends smoothly on some real parameter $$\lambda $$λ, and admitting a unique invariant measure for any value of $$\lambda $$λ around $$\lambda =0$$λ=0. Our aim is to compute the derivative with respect to $$\lambda $$λ of averages with respect to the invariant measure, at $$\lambda =0$$λ=0. We analyze a numerical method which consists in simulating the process at $$\lambda =0$$λ=0 together with its…

On the (Non-)Stationary Density of Fractional-Driven Stochastic Differential Equations

We investigate the stationary measure π of SDEs driven by additive fractional noise with any Hurst parameter and establish that π admits a smooth Lebesgue density obeying both Gaussian-type lower and…

Uncertainty quantification for generalized Langevin dynamics.

The optimality of the common random path coupling is demonstrated in the sense that it produces a minimal variance surrogate for the difference estimator relative to sampling dynamics driven by independent paths.

Theoretical and numerical analysis of non-reversible dynamics in computational statistical physics+

This thesis deals with four topics related to non-reversible dynamics. Each is the subject of a chapter which can be read independently. The first chapter is a general introduction presenting the…

Error estimates and variance reduction for nonequilibrium stochastic dynamics

Equilibrium properties in statistical physics are obtained by computing averages with respect to Boltzmann–Gibbs measures, sampled in practice using ergodic dynamics such as the Langevin dynamics.…

Constructing Sampling Schemes via Coupling: Markov Semigroups and Optimal Transport

A general framework for constructing and analysing coupled Markov chain Monte Carlo samplers, allowing for both (possibly degenerate) diffusion and piecewise deterministic Markov processes is developed, and a modified Poincare inequality is derived.

Convergence of the likelihood ratio method for linear response of non-equilibrium stationary states

Numerical schemes for computing the linear response of steady-state averages with respect to a perturbation of the drift part of the stochastic differential equation based on the Girsanov change-of-measure theory are considered.

Time Averages of Stochastic Processes: a Martingale Approach

This work shows how exponential concentration inequalities for time averages of stochastic processes over a finite time interval can be obtained from a martingale representation formula. The approach…

This review describes how techniques from the analysis of partial differential equations can be used to devise good algorithms and to quantify their efficiency and accuracy.

Importance Sampling for Pathwise Sensitivity of Stochastic Chaotic Systems

By introducing a spring term between the original and perturbated SDEs, a new pathwise sensitivity estimator is derived by importance sampling and Richardson-Romberg extrapolation on the volatility parameter gives a more accurate and efficient estimator.

Global stability properties of the climate: Melancholia states, invariant measures, and phase transitions

For a wide range of values of the intensity of the incoming solar radiation, the Earth features at least two attracting states, which correspond to competing climates. The warm climate is analogous…

Integration by parts formula for locally smooth laws and applications to sensitivity computations

We consider random variables of the form $F=f(V_1,...,V_n)$ where $f$ is a smooth function and $V_i,i\in\mathbbN$ are random variables with absolutely continuous law $p_i(y).$ We assume that…

Synchronous couplings of reflected Brownian motions in smooth domains

For every bounded planar domain $D$ with a smooth boundary, we define a `Lyapunov exponent' $\Lambda(D)$ using a fairly explicit formula. We consider two reflected Brownian motions in $D$, driven by…
