A Wasserstein Gradient Flow Approach to Poisson-Nernst-Planck Equations
The Poisson-Nernst-Planck system of equations used to model ionic transport is interpreted as a gradient flow for the Wasserstein distance and a free energy in the space of probability measures with finite second moment. A variational scheme is then set up and is the starting point of the construction of global weak solutions in a unified framework for the cases of both linear and nonlinear dif...
متن کاملUnification of reaction and diffusion as a Wasserstein gradient flow
s workshop PDE approximations in Fast reaction – Slow diffusion scenarios Modeling Drug-Protein Dynamics L.A. Peletier In these lectures we analyze a typical multi-(time)-scale dynamical system which arises in the analysis of drugs binding to receptors and proteins in blood plasma. Thanks to the large differences in the reaction rates and in the concentrations of the compounds involved, it is p...
متن کاملPassing to the limit in a Wasserstein gradient flow: From diffusion to reaction
We study a singular-limit problem arising in the modelling of chemical reactions. At finite ε > 0, the system is described by a Fokker-Planck convection-diffusion equation with a double-well convection potential. This potential is scaled by 1/ε, and in the limit ε→ 0, the solution concentrates onto the two wells, resulting into a limiting system that is a pair of ordinary differential equations...
متن کاملFrom a Large-deviations Principle to the Wasserstein Gradient Flow: a New Micro-macro Passage
We study the connection between a system of many independent Brownian particles on one hand and the deterministic diffusion equation on the other. For a fixed time step h > 0, a large-deviations rate functional Jh characterizes the behaviour of the particle system at t = h in terms of the initial distribution at t = 0. For the diffusion equation, a single step in the time-discretized entropy-Wa...
متن کاملA Primal-Dual Approach for a Total Variation Wasserstein Flow
We consider a nonlinear fourth-order diffusion equation that arises in denoising of image densities. We propose an implicit timestepping scheme that employs a primal-dual method for computing the subgradient of the total variation semi-norm. The constraint on the dual variable is relaxed by adding a penalty term, depending on a parameter that determines the weight of the penalisation. The paper...
