Entropy and Fisher information in non-convex domains: one chain to rule them all

Jean-Baptiste Casteras, Marco Flaim, Léonard Monsaingeon

We prove that the (square root) Fisher information functional is a strong Wasserstein upper gradient of the entropy on non-convex Riemannian domains. This fills a gap in the litera…

A gradient flow that is none: Heat flow with Wentzell boundary condition

Marie Bormann, Léonard Monsaingeon, D. R. Michiel Renger +1

We establish a representation of the heat flow with Wentzell boundary conditions on smooth domains as gradient descent dynamics for the entropy in a suitably extended Otto manifold…

Large deviations for sticky-reflecting Brownian motion with boundary diffusion

Jean-Baptiste Casteras, Leonard Monsaingeon, Luca Nenna

We study a Schilder-type large deviation principle for sticky-reflected Brownian motion with boundary diffusion, both at the static and sample path level in the short-time limit. A…

Discretizing the Fokker-Planck equation with second-order accuracy: a dissipation driven approach

Clément Cancès, Léonard Monsaingeon, Andrea Natale

We propose a fully discrete finite volume scheme for the standard Fokker-Planck equation. The space discretization relies on the well-known square-root approximation, which falls i…
