On the Convergence to the Non-equilibrium Steady State of a Langevin Dynamics with Widely Separated Time Scales and Different Temperatures

Nicolas Macris, Emanuele Mingione, Diego Alberici

We study the solution of the two-temperature Fokker-Planck equation and rigorously analyse its convergence towards an explicit non-equilibrium stationary measure for long time and two widely separated time scales. The exponential rates of convergence are e ...

Noise-induced transitions past the onset of a steady symmetry-breaking bifurcation: The case of the sudden expansion

François Gallaire, Edouard Boujo, Yves-Marie François Ducimetière

We consider fluid flows, governed by the Navier-Stokes equations, subject to a steady symmetry-breaking bifurcation and forced by a weak noise acting on a slow timescale. By generalizing the multiple-scale weakly nonlinear expansion technique employed in t ...

Testing Theories of the Glass Transition with the Same Liquid but Many Kinetic Rules

Matthieu Wyart, Carolina Brito Carvalho dos Santos

We study the glass transition by exploring a broad class of kinetic rules that can significantly modify the normal dynamics of supercooled liquids while maintaining thermal equilibrium. Beyond the usual dynamics of liquids, this class includes dynamics in ...

Probabilistic and Deterministic Wellposedness for Low Regularity Dispersive Equations

Katie Sabrina Catherine Rosie Marsden

In this thesis we will present two results on global existence for nonlinear dispersive equations with data at or below the scaling regularity. In chapter 1 we take a probabilistic perspective to study the energy-critical nonlinear Schrödinger equation in ...

Generalized Bradley-Terry Models for Score Estimation from Paired Comparisons

Le Nguyen Hoang, Julien René Pierre Fageot, Sadegh Farhadkhani, Oscar Jean Olivier Villemaud

Many applications, e.g. in content recommendation, sports, or recruitment, leverage the comparisons of alternatives to score those alternatives. The classical Bradley-Terry model and its variants have been widely used to do so. The historical model conside ...

A Method of Moments Estimator for Interacting Particle Systems and their Mean Field Limit

Andrea Zanoni, Grigorios A. Pavliotis

We study the problem of learning unknown parameters in stochastic interacting particle systems with polynomial drift, interaction, and diffusion functions from the path of one single particle in the system. Our estimator is obtained by solving a linear sys ...

Modeling friction and wear using an adaptive discrete-continuum coupling

Manon Eugénie Voisin--Leprince

When two objects slide against each other, wear and friction occur at their interface. The accumulation of wear forms what is commonly referred to as a ``third-body''. Understanding third-body evolution has significant applications in industry, where contr ...
