Anisothermal Chemical Reactions: Onsager-Machlup and Macroscopic Fluctuation Theory
D. R. Michiel Renger
We study a micro and macroscopic model for chemical reactions with feedback between reactions and temperature of the solute. The first result concerns the quasipotential as the lar…
Gradient flows for bounded linear evolution equations
D. R. Michiel Renger, Stefanie Schindler
We study linear evolution equations in separable Hilbert spaces defined by a bounded linear operator. We answer the question which of these equations can be written as a gradient f…
Variational structures beyond gradient flows: a macroscopic fluctuation-theory perspective
Robert I. A. Patterson, D. R. Michiel Renger, Upanshu Sharma
Macroscopic equations arising out of stochastic particle systems in detailed balance (called dissipative systems or gradient flows) have a natural variational structure, which can…
Stein Variational Gradient Descent: many-particle and long-time asymptotics
Nikolas Nüsken, D. R. Michiel Renger
Stein variational gradient descent (SVGD) refers to a class of methods for Bayesian inference based on interacting particle systems. In this paper, we consider the originally propo…
