Kinetic Mean-Field Planning via Schrödinger Bridges: Existence, Penalization, and Consistency Bounds

Erhan Bayraktar, Zhiyan Ding, Hiroaki Horikawa

We study a mean-field planning problem for a swarm of interacting, non-cooperative agents whose dynamics are stochastic and kinetic. The noise acts on the velocity only, and the in…

Long-time behavior and turnpike properties of linear-quadratic graphon mean field control problems

Erhan Bayraktar, Zhongyuan Cao, Jiamin Jian

We investigate the asymptotic behavior and turnpike properties of graphon mean field control (GMFC) problems in the linear-quadratic setting. We consider both a finite-horizon GMFC…

Quantitative convergence rates for extended mean field games with volatility control

Erhan Bayraktar, Hiroaki Horikawa

We investigate the convergence of symmetric stochastic differential games with interactions via control, where the volatility terms of both idiosyncratic and common noises are cont…

Entropy-Based Dimension-Free Convergence and Loss-Adaptive Schedules for Diffusion Models

Ahmad Aghapour, Erhan Bayraktar, Ziqing Zhang

Diffusion generative models synthesize samples by discretizing reverse-time dynamics driven by a learned score (or denoiser). Existing convergence analyses of diffusion models typi…

Uniform-in-time convergence and turnpike properties of linear-quadratic mean field control problems with common noise

Erhan Bayraktar, Jiamin Jian

We investigate uniform-in-time convergence and turnpike properties for linear-quadratic mean field control problems with common noise. Within a unified framework, we analyze a fini…
